Bitcoin fell 3% to $100,776 as tech stock sell-offs and market volatility increase, impacting cryptocurrencies.

Cryptocurrencies experienced a significant decline at the start of the last week of January.

This downturn follows a previous record peak and is largely influenced by a sell-off in technology stocks linked to the Chinese startup DeepSeek.

Bitcoin’s price fell by 3% to $100,776.81, with earlier lows of $97,750. The CoinDesk 20 index, which tracks a broader range of cryptocurrencies, dropped by 7%.

The Nasdaq also suffered, declining more than 3%, leading to falls in shares of major crypto firms. Coinbase and MicroStrategy saw declines of about 6% and 4%, respectively, while Bitcoin mining companies faced heavier losses. Core Scientific shares fell by 28%, Terawulf by 25%, and Iren by 22%.

Geoff Kendrick from Standard Chartered noted that the relationship between digital assets and the tech sector is strong, pointing to the correlation between Bitcoin and Nasdaq performance.

In the last 24 hours, over $250 million in long liquidations in Bitcoin occurred, as traders using leverage were forced to sell their assets to cover losses. This was exacerbated by mixed reactions to an executive order on crypto from President Trump.

Investors are also cautious ahead of the Federal Reserve meeting, hoping for a more accommodative stance but fearing a lack of dovish policies.

Despite the recent volatility, some analysts suggest there is nothing fundamentally bearish about Bitcoin’s current price action.

Iran buries nuclear site entrances amid rising tensions with the U.S.

Published

on

Satellite images reveal that Iran has buried all three tunnel entrances at its Isfahan nuclear complex. Analysts say the move mirrors defensive preparations taken before U.S. airstrikes devastated the facility last year, with no vehicle or personnel activity visible around the entrances.

The burial appears aimed at limiting damage from potential airstrikes and complicating any ground raid targeting enriched uranium stored in the underground facility. Experts suggest equipment or materials may have been moved into the tunnels for protection, though this remains unconfirmed.

The fortification comes amid ongoing U.S.-Iran tensions. President Trump has demanded Iran curb its nuclear program, warning of military action, while Tehran insists halting uranium enrichment is unacceptable. Recent indirect talks in Oman showed little progress toward a new deal.

Trump hints at military pressure as U.S. and Iran resume nuclear talks

US-Iran restart nuclear talks in Oman amid cautious optimism, while Trump considers military escalation and Israel demands stricter missile terms.

US-Iran restart nuclear talks in Oman amid cautious optimism, while Trump considers military escalation and Israel demands stricter missile terms.

The United States and Iran have returned to the negotiating table in Oman, marking a fresh attempt to ease escalating nuclear tensions between the two long-time rivals. President Donald Trump described the talks as promising, suggesting momentum toward further discussions.

Iran’s Foreign Minister echoed cautious optimism, calling the meetings a positive first step while acknowledging deep-seated trust issues remain unresolved. At the heart of the talks is a major sticking point — the White House’s insistence that Iran dismantle its nuclear capability entirely.

Iran, however, maintains it has a sovereign right to enrich uranium, setting the stage for difficult negotiations ahead as both sides test whether diplomacy can hold.
