Bitcoin drops 12% to 77,900 amid global market volatility; predictions vary on short-term recovery or further declines.

Bitcoin has had a bruising week, slipping below 80,000 for the first time since April 2025 and trading near 77,900 as global markets turn risk off. The pullback has wiped more than 200 billion from the crypto market, with thin weekend liquidity accelerating the sell-off.

Volatility has surged after more than 2 billion dollars in bitcoin positions were liquidated since Thursday, intensifying price swings and unsettling investors. Analysts are divided, with some calling a potential short-term bottom near 70,000 while others warn the turbulence may not be over yet.

White House to meet with crypto leaders on federal legislation and stablecoin interest amid financial stability concerns.

The White House is set to meet with banking and cryptocurrency leaders to push forward federal crypto legislation. Discussions will focus on stablecoin interest and financial rules under the Clarity Act.

The bill aims to provide clarity for digital assets but faces delays over competition and financial stability concerns. Crypto companies emphasise that offering interest is crucial to attract customers.
