Bitcoin has crashed to its lowest point since February, dipping below $62,000. A massive $1.5 billion in leveraged bets were wiped out as traders panicked and moved their money out of crypto and into hot new tech IPOs and AI stocks.

## Idea

Bitcoin is experiencing a severe crash, falling below $62,000 for the first time since February. The drop forced a massive $1.5 billion liquidation of bullish bets, which often triggers further automated selling and panic. Analysts note that money is actively rotating out of crypto and into surging AI stocks and record-breaking IPOs like SpaceX. With market sentiment deeply fearful and momentum completely broken, this downward pressure is likely to continue in the short term.
