Panic in the crypto space

A chain transaction showed that the Bhutan government transferred 500 BTC to QCP Capital. However, this country is still holding 12,202 BTC, but people speculated that they are going to sell Bitcoin in bulk amounts.

This small amount of Bitcoin transactions by the Bhutan government acted as a catalyst to create fear among the crypto traders.

Under this pressure, the crypto market saw significant capital outflow. In particular, Bitcoin crashed to $94,500 from the $100,000 level, and Ethereum crashed to $3,524 from $3,980. Some altcoins crashed by 30% in the same time period.

Because of this sudden significant downfall in the trade price of cryptocurrencies, a total of 567,905 traders were liquidated globally & lost $1.71 billion, Coinglass data showed.

Now, it will be interesting to see the next move in this market, as there is no negative news, but this fear is going to push big Bitcoin holders to sell their Bitcoin.
