加密貨幣價格大幅波動，比特幣曾經在1小時內急瀉約1萬美元，一度跌至約4.2萬元水平。
據CoinDesk報價資料顯示，比特幣24小時低位報42019美元，最新仍挫15%，報47855美元；以太幣低位見3512美元，現仍挫約13%，報3963美元。
分析師表示，比特幣市場的大部分拋售壓力來自現金方面，高槓桿頭寸及衍生產品加劇了跌勢，而比特幣暴跌至4.2萬美元水平，主因是有衍生產品觸發止蝕。
The price of Bitcoin was rangebound on early Friday around the $56k handle. The world's largest cryptocurrency then spiked when the kneejerk read of the November payrolls came in as very disappointing, seen as postponing the Fed's plans to accelerate the taper but then began to decline during the US cash session to about $54k-$53k handle by late afternoon as the narrative flipflopped and near unanimous consensus emerged around a Fed announcement that Powell would announce a much faster taper on Dec 15 leading to rate lift off by June.
Then at
midnight into the early hours of Saturday morning, during the
traditionally illiquid Asian session when things normally go splat in
the night for cryptos as one or more super levered Asian momentum
chasers blow up, Bitcoin suffered a massive liquidation and crashed into
a bear market down to the $42k level, tumbling into a bear market.
Price has recovered some, now trading around $47k.
We noted that the action was that of a margined whale getting liquidated...
... an assessment Vijay Ayyar, head of Asia Pacific with crypto exchange Luno in Singapore agreed with, telling Bloomberg the action overnight was leveraged buyers of Bitcoin being flushed out.
"Markets have also been jittery with all the uncertainty around omicron, with cases now appearing in many countries," Ayyar said. "It's hard to say what that means for economies and markets and hence the uncertainty."
So far, Bitcoin has found support just below the 200dma.
The plunge is just another sign of risk aversion sweeping across global markets as equities sink and fate havens soar. Spiking inflation is forcing central banks to tighten monetary policy, reducing liquidity for risk assets. However, as we first pointed out yesterday, we are now at the point where the market is starting to price in the first future rate cut - sometime in 2023-2024 - resulting from the Fed's overtightening cycle.
The omicron variant of COVID-19 has also compounded risk aversion as it derails the global economic reopening.
Today's
global cryptocurrency market cap is $2.28 Trillion, down 17.5% in the
last 24 hours. Total cryptocurrency trading volume in the last day is at
$236 billion. Bitcoin's market cap of all crypto is 38.68%.
That said, El Salvador President Nayib Bukele is using the dip to buy even more Bitcoin.
