CoinSwitch Markets Desk noted, “BTC fell from above $123K to near $121K, followed by another wave of selling that pushed it below $119K. The decline was steep, reflecting selling pressure. After touching lows close to $117K, the price began to recover gradually, regaining ground through the later part of the day. BTC now has moved back above $119K, showing some buying interest, though the rebound remains modest compared to the earlier falls. The drop was partly influenced by comments from U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who stated that the government has no plans to make further Bitcoin purchases for its Bitcoin and digital asset reserve.”
