Why did the BTC crash 2026 happen?

Multiple factors likely played a role, including persistent spot Bitcoin ETF outflows, thin liquidity, and forced deleveraging. Swiss market coverage has highlighted the unusual size of the decline and the uncertain drivers. The mix reduced buy support, making each sell wave push price lower and increase crypto volatility.

How do Bitcoin ETF flows affect the Bitcoin price in USD?

Large daily redemptions reduce buy-side demand, widen spreads, and can trigger cascades through derivatives. Sustained inflows can steady depth and help confirm a turn. We watch several sessions of net inflows, tighter spreads, and deeper books during US hours as early signs of stabilization.

Which price levels should Swiss investors watch this week?

Key reference points are $79,295.37 as a pivot, the 50-day average at $85,336.05, and support near $67,825.29 and $59,703.62. Intraday, watch $69,321.00 to $69,860.75 ranges. If price reclaims the pivot and holds, upside odds improve. Below support, expect continued crypto volatility.
