Just want to know what happened in the last 24h, I didn't sell anything and still bullish, I just don't understand what happened in the last few hours
I'll tell you exactly what "happened".
In short, it's called deleveraging.
When too many positions build up in the futures markets betting with leverage then high quantity institutional holders, Blackrock and the like, orchestrate a dump if you will to take out those positions. Those who have gone long get liquidated and that wealth transfers to the orchestrators of the dump.
The fundamentals are clearly bullish and this is just a money grab from the smart money, what the common person calls market manipulation.
In fact, if you see the charts even a drop to $75k does not interrupt the bullish momentum and it might strengthen the move upwards actually. Do not panic like the average Joe.
A secondary reason is strengthening US economic indicators that came out yesterday which may suggest a Fed rate increase this year. This is generally not good for stocks and crypto as manifested yesterday in the stock market too that was significantly down for this reason.
