## Top Headlines Today
The "Losing Streak" Record: Bitcoin has now seen four consecutive months of decline. This is the first time the asset has performed this poorly for such a duration since the 2018 bear market.
The "Trump Tariff" Effect: Market analysts attribute much of the recent volatility to macro factors, specifically tariff threats from the U.S. administration. This triggered over $2.2 billion in liquidations late last week.
Mining Under Pressure: With BTC dipping below $80k, miner profitability has plummeted. Data shows that only the absolute latest hardware (like the Antminer S23 series) is currently operating with healthy margins; older rigs are "in the red."
Institutional "Risk-Off": Spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen consistent outflows. Interestingly, investors appear to be fleeing to "cold hard cash" and precious metals rather than digital assets during this period of geopolitical tension.
Opera & USDT: On a more positive note, Opera (OPRA) shares jumped 13% following the integration of Tether’s USDT and Tether Gold into its MiniPay wallet.
## What to Watch Next
The market is currently fixated on two key support levels for Bitcoin: $74,500 and $69,000. If Bitcoin fails to hold these, analysts warn of a deeper "capitulation" phase. Additionally, the Fear & Greed Index is sitting at a lowly 14, suggesting that while the mood is grim, the market is technically "oversold."
Note: Volatility is currently high due to thin liquidity and algorithmic trading bots triggering stop-losses.
