BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes weighed in on the market turmoil, stating that he was buying the dip. However, he added a note of caution, saying,, "If BTC falls below $76,500, my credibility is doomed."

From a technical analysis perspective, Bitcoin is approaching the $74,000 support level—a position that has repeatedly failed to rebound in the past. However, it was strongly broken through during Trump's influence, turning from a strong resistance level into a strong support level. Additionally, the Fear & Greed Index stands at 17 today, indicating extreme fear, which often precedes a rebound.
