BITCOIN BOUNCES AFTER 50% CRASH Bitcoin rebounded nearly 6% after briefly falling more than 50% from its October peak, touching near $60,000 before climbing back to around $65,700. The selloff was driven by liquidations and leveraged position unwinds, not a clear fundamental trigger. Ether and Solana also dropped sharply before recovering. Volatility has surged, ETF outflows hit $434 million, and over $2 billion in crypto positions were liquidated. Traders are now watching whether Bitcoin can hold the $60,000 level — a break could push prices into the mid-$50,000s.(*Walter Bloomberg)
