Just noticed Bitcoin got absolutely wrecked last night, dumping all the way down to $81K before bouncing to $82K. That's basically a $10K drop in 24 hours. The liquidation cascade was brutal too - over $777 million in longs got wiped out in a single hour, with the total hitting $1.75B across the day. Whole market got hit, ETH down to $2.7K, BNB around $843, XRP dipping to $1.74.

People are pointing fingers at the Fed chair situation. Trump said he's nominating Kevin Warsh instead of Rick Rieder, and apparently that spooked traders who were banking on a more dovish pick. The Polymarket odds for Warsh jumped from 37% to 87% in like two hours. Could be traders were hoping for rate cuts and got disappointed.

Technically, Bitcoin's barely holding above its November lows around $81K. If that breaks, analysts are warning we could see $75K next. Current bitcoin price is way down from those January 2026 levels everyone was watching. Support levels matter now - miss them and this pullback gets ugly fast.
