📰 Crypto Update – August 1, 2025
🔻 Bitcoin $BTC drops to $115,000
Many big investors (called whales) are selling to take profits, which pushed the price down.
💰 In July, whales took around $6–8 billion in profits. One old wallet sold 80,000 BTC in one go.
⚠️ Over $600 million in long positions were liquidated (forced to close), including a $13.7M ETH trade on Binance.
🌍 New U.S. tariffs are also hurting markets in Asia and affecting crypto prices.
📉 Altcoins also fell:
$DOGE , $SOL , XRP dropped more than 6%
ETH had a strong July but is slowing down now
🔮 Experts say the market may stay flat for a few weeks or months — but it’s not the end of the bull run.
