Bitcoin's recent decline from approximately $102,000 to $97,000 can be attributed to several key factors:

High-Leverage Liquidations: As Bitcoin surpassed the $100,000 mark, a significant number of traders held highly leveraged positions. A sudden price drop led to cascading liquidations, intensifying the downward movement. This deleveraging pushed the price down from $102,000 to $90,000, as traders rushed to close positions and minimize their losses.

Federal Reserve's Monetary Policy: The Federal Reserve's recent policy announcement indicated a more conservative approach to future interest rate cuts than previously expected. This hawkish stance has made speculative assets like Bitcoin less attractive, contributing to its price decline.

Profit-Taking by Short-Term Holders: Following Bitcoin's rise to new all-time highs, many short-term investors sold their holdings to secure profits. This increased selling pressure contributed to the price drop.

Market Manipulation Concerns: There have been instances of 'spoofing,' where large sell orders are placed without the intention of execution, creating artificial selling pressure. This tactic can drive prices down and has been observed around the $100,000 level.
