$BTC When Bitcoin’s price falls, short-term traders often panic-sell, triggering liquidations that accelerate the drop. It may hit key support zones (e.g. $100k–$104k) where more patient buyers buy the dip. Long-term investors see it as a buying opportunity, given Bitcoin’s fixed 21 million supply and halving-driven scarcity. Geopolitical events (like US–Iran tensions) can spur a risk-off shift—triggering temporary BTC sell-offs as investors flock to safer assets. However unless the crisis deepens significantly, Bitcoin usually stabilizes or recovers near support levels after short-term fear subsides
