#数字资产市场动态 $BTC Last night, it surged to $97,924, nearly hitting a new high, just one breath away from the 98,000 mark. However, it was directly smashed down at this level. It finally stabilized around $95,300 and started to move sideways, and the entire crypto market also entered a stalemate.

Why the sudden plunge? Basically, the review of the "CLARITY Act" was suddenly postponed, and this change in regulatory expectations directly disrupted market sentiment. Bulls quickly took profits and dumped, causing the price to drop instantly.

With this wave of volatility, liquidations in the derivatives market also exploded. The 24-hour global liquidation reached $294 million, with bulls and bears fighting fiercely around the $95,000 level. Currently, the market is in a temporary balance of power between bulls and bears. The critical level of $95,000 has become the last line of defense for the bulls. The next move depends on regulatory news and whether the price can hold this level.

Oops, once again regulatory expectations are causing trouble. Just approaching 100,000 and getting smashed down, classic move. That position at 97,924 was really just a little off, it's hard to watch, long positions being completely wiped out. The delay of the CLARITY bill directly triggered a surge, which is why the crypto market fears uncertainty the most. When news changes suddenly, everything gets chaotic. A liquidation of 294 million, how many shorts does that wipe out? The 95,300 level has indeed become a critical threshold for life and death. Regulation is truly more frightening than price fluctuations. The next step is to see if we can hold above 95,000. This time, the policy really brought the market back to its original state. The previous rally was all in vain.

Regulation really is a killer. It almost hit a new high, but then a single delay just brought it crashing down. Damn it.

97,924 almost broke 100,000, but the regulatory expectations brought it down. That's the most heartbreaking part.

Haha, is it the same old regulatory expectations again? I was hit by this back in 2014, and anyone still chasing highs now is just a kid who hasn't suffered enough. Almost hit 98, just missing that breath and getting wiped out by a 294 million liquidation order. This business... is not suitable for people with weak hearts. For the 95300 line, I bet more than five bitcoins that the bulls won't hold it. Just waiting to see the show. Such a fierce liquidation, leverage enthusiasts are going to get cut again today. Luckily, I switched to a stable DeFi portfolio long ago, with an annualized stability of... never mind, no need to boast. Now, it all depends on how the CLARITY bill is going to be handled. If it really passes, we'll be celebrating for a while.

294 million in liquidation volume. Is this still called temporary balance? Systemic risk is definitely the eve of a domino chain reaction. Once regulators give the order, 95,000 will be directly affected.

It's the same old story with regulation again, always the same routine. 97924 is just a little short of 100,000, but it gets smashed back down live, truly incredible.

A delay in regulation directly crashes the market; this move is truly outrageous. If 95,000 can't hold, be really careful.
