As selling pressure deepens in the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin has fallen to a new one-year low.

The largest cryptocurrency hit $73,500, its lowest price since Donald Trump’s election victory in the US.

A graph showing the drop in BTC price.

Ethereum (ETH) fell by 6.5% to around $2,200, while Solana (SOL) dropped by 5.5%, falling below $100 and reaching levels around $97.

The decline in the crypto market is mirroring widespread sell-offs in the technology and finance sectors. Liquidity concerns and macroeconomic uncertainties, in particular, have accelerated the flight from risky assets.

The sell-off gained momentum following an announcement on Friday, January 23rd. BlackRock’s private equity fund, BlackRock TCP Capital (TCPC), announced plans to revise its net worth down by 19 percent. This development heightened concerns that the economic outlook might not be as strong as headline data suggests and that liquidity in the system could be tighter than anticipated.

The market downturn also affected large institutional portfolios. Ethereum bull Tom Lee’s Ethereum portfolio, managed through Bitmine, incurred total losses exceeding $7.23 billion. While the current value of his total $16.39 billion investment has fallen to $9.15 billion, the unrealized loss in the portfolio stands at $7.23 billion. Year-to-date losses have exceeded $3.54 billion.

Strategy, led by Michael Saylor, has a total Bitcoin reserve worth $52.87 billion. The company holds 713,502 BTC, with an average cost of $76,052. At current prices, the company is approximately 2.5% in the red, representing a loss of around $1.39 billion.
