The leading crypto has dropped to the $61,800\u2013$64,000 range, shedding roughly 5\u20136% in 24 hours as capital rotates aggressively into equity markets ahead of what could be the most consequential SpaceX IPO.<\/p>\n<p>The question traders are asking isn\u2019t just when BTC recovers, it\u2019s whether this sell-off signals a deeper structural shift in where risk appetite is being deployed.

A decisive close below $61,500 opens the door to a deeper retest of the high $50,000s.<\/p>\n<p>Resistance is stacked above. The mid-$60,000s capped the last recovery attempt, and $70,000 looks increasingly distant given current ETF flow dynamics.<\/p>\n<p>BTC has already erased its geopolitical risk premium, and persistent institutional outflows are compressing any near-term bounce potential.

Support cracking below $61,500 on continued ETF selling triggers a momentum-driven leg toward $57,000 to $58,000.<\/p>\n<p>Volume and ETF flow data are the signals to watch. Not price alone.<\/p>\n<p>ETH support sits in the low to mid $3,000s with resistance near prior cycle highs. XRP is range-bound, watching horizontal support in the low $0.40s to $0.50s with no breakout signal in sight.
