Bitcoin Slips Below $78K as BTC Liquidations Shake Crypto Market
Bitcoin($BTC) fell to around $77,300 after failing to break $80,000, with over $125 million in liquidations driven by heavy derivatives selling.
The broader crypto market also declined as traders reduced risk ahead of the upcoming Federal Reserve decision, adding to short-term pressure.
Analysts note Bitcoin is still in a consolidation phase, with key support at $76,000–$77,000 and potential for recovery if macro conditions remain stable.
Bitcoin slid lower over the last 24 hours, dropping to around $77,300 after struggling to hold above the $80,000 level. The fall of about 1.6% coincided with a general pullback across the crypto market, which also lost ground during the same span. The fall was fueled by activity in the derivatives market. An avalanche of sales then sent prices crashing, resulting in mass liquidations. Over $125 million in Bitcoin positions were erased in a single day, according to data. Broader crypto market volumes were nearly $395 million in total liquidations, and long positions were the biggest ones by far.

Paul Atkins at Bitcoin Conference Says Clarity Act Is the Only Thing That Stops Next Gensler

For the first time in history, a sitting SEC Chairman addressed a Bitcoin conference. Paul Atkins used the moment to speak about regulatory limits, political risk, and why the Clarity Act is not just important but essential to protecting everything the current administration has built for crypto.

The SEC Cannot Do This Alone

He said that the SEC operates under authority that is, in his own words, “basically a 1930s type of thing.” It can be nimble. It can coordinate with the CFTC. But it cannot create lasting certainty without Congress.

“Nothing futureproofs things like a statute,” Atkins said, “and then good opinions from courts to chisel what the statute says into stone.”

Without new legislation, he explained, everything the current SEC has built rests on guidance and goodwill rather than law. That matters enormously when political winds shift.

The Next Administration Is the Real Threat

Atkins acknowledged directly what the industry fears most. A future administration hostile to crypto, backed by a statute that defaults new projects to securities classification, would have tools the Biden-era SEC never had.

“Elections have consequences and can be huge,” he said. “Who would have thought ten years ago that we would have this complete 180-degree pivot pretty much by the US government?”

The flip side of that pivot is obvious. What one administration builds, the next can dismantle. Without a statute locking the framework in place, the progress of the past two years has no permanent foundation.

The SEC, Atkins said, is “focused on trying to streamline things, trying to make things more efficient, trying to help innovators innovate so that they can do so with certainty and then not get picked off by folks who are jealously guarding their turf from existing ways of doing things.”
