Crypto: BTC is down again (2026-01-22)

TLDR

Bitcoin fell 0.63% over the last 24h to ~$89,447, a modest decline that extends a 6.24% weekly drop. The move reflects a combination of macro headwinds and market-specific pressures. Here are the main factors:

Macro Risk-Off Sentiment – Foreign sell-offs of U.S. Treasuries are pushing yields higher, creating a "capital war" that pressures risk assets like Bitcoin.

Whale Selling & Liquidations – Major whales closed or liquidated large long positions, triggering a broader market sell-off and over $590M in liquidations.

Regulatory Uncertainty – A key U.S. crypto bill stalled as the Senate shifted focus to inflation, delaying regulatory clarity and dampening sentiment.
