$BTC š Under Pressure as Geopolitical Tensions and Chinaās Sell-Off Loom! šØš³ #CryptoCrashBitcoin ($BTC) is facing a rough ride as the crypto market slumps, driven by geopolitical and economic headwinds. U.S. trade policies, particularly restrictions on Nvidiaās chip exports to China announced in April 2025, have triggered a tech sector plunge, with Nasdaq 100 futures dropping 2.3% on April 3 (Reuters). Given $BTCās correlation with U.S. tech stocks since May 2020, this has sent crypto prices spiraling, with Coinbase (-7.7%) and MicroStrategy (-5.6%) also hit hard. Adding fuel to the fire, reports suggest China is offloading 15,000 BTC ($1.4B) from its 190,000 BTC ($16B) stash, potentially flooding the market (Cointelegraph). This echoes Chinaās $20B PlusToken sell-off, which crashed prices. Past state-level dumps by Germany and the U.S. have sparked panic, and $BTCās current dip reflects similar fears. Investors are bracing for volatility as macroeconomic worries and sell-offs weigh on
