Why crypto market is tumbling 

The overall market decline was driven primarily by a cascade of forced liquidations. Nearly $500 million in leveraged positions were wiped out across major exchanges, including roughly $420 million in longs. More than 140,000 traders were liquidated within a single day, accelerating the downturn.

Weaker ETF demand added to the pressure with BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust having now logged six consecutive weeks of outflows totaling more than $2.8 billion, while overall US spot Bitcoin ETF inflows dropped to just $59 million on December 3, signaling softening institutional interest at a critical moment.

At the same time, macro conditions deepened the volatility. The Bank of Japan hinted at a possible rate hike, a shift that threatens carry-trade liquidity supporting global risk assets.

Additionally, traders moved to reduce exposure ahead of the latest US PCE inflation report, keeping Bitcoin locked in a cautious $91,000–$95,000 range before the sell-off intensified.

Although the PCE data arrived broadly in line with expectations, showing cooling but still elevated core inflation, the reading was not convincing enough for markets to assume faster Fed rate cuts. The result was a guarded reaction that reinforced risk-off behavior across crypto.
