Bitcoin Price Prediction: Bond Yields Hit 2008 Levels As BTC Drops Back Below $78,000

Share:
Bitcoin slid to $77,033 on May 18 as the 30-year Treasury yield closed at 5.12% and the 10-year hit 4.63%, pushing markets to fully price out Fed rate cuts and raise hike bets. The move forced $167M of long liquidations versus $21.04M for shorts in 24 hours, options volume surged 64.78%, and BTC lost key 0.618 and 0.705 Fibonacci supports at $79,249 and $81,958 with FVG support zones between $70,000 and $75,574. The macro-driven selloff increases crypto market risk for leveraged positions and could pressure flows across CEX, DEX and DeFi venues.
