The timing of the escalation caught markets off-guard, intensifying liquidation pressure on leveraged positions.

Bitcoin’s decline is now testing key psychological levels, while altcoins continue to underperform amid heavy selling.

For now, traders are bracing for a volatile weekend. The market’s next direction will hinge on whether Beijing responds in kind or signals willingness to reopen negotiations before November 1.
