Bitcoin slid below US$65,000 in early Asia trading on Monday, roiled by fresh nervousness over the status of US tariffs. “The crypto market continues to be fragile, with market participants counting on support at $60,000,” said Caroline Mauron, co-founder of Orbit Markets. The broader crypto market has seen over $2 trillion in value wiped out, with the market for smaller tokens hit especially hard. In the last 24 hours alone, the crypto market shed another $100 billion in value, according to CoinGecko data. Bitcoin was trading at about $64,800 at 11 a.m. in Singapore, below the $65,000 threshold that Rachael Lucas, an analyst at BTC Markets, said was a key support level for the token.
