Crash Causes: The June 2026 crypto market crash saw $250 billion evaporate, driven by a convergence of four forces: a hawkish Federal Reserve, US-Iran military tensions, Michael Saylor's first Bitcoin sale, and the longest streak of Bitcoin ETF outflows, all exacerbating an already fragile, leveraged market.
Federal Reserve Impact: The Fed's decision to maintain interest rates at 3.50%-3.75% during the April 2026 meeting, with an 8-4 vote, shattered hopes for rate cuts, tightening liquidity and creating a hostile environment that set the stage for the subsequent crash.
Geopolitical Tensions: The fragile US-Iran ceasefire collapsed in early June, with Iran launching missiles, prompting US military retaliation, which heightened geopolitical risk and triggered a swift capital flight from risk assets, including cryptocurrencies, exacerbating the price decline.
ETF Outflows: The US spot Bitcoin ETFs, which had been a significant source of demand, experienced a record $4.4 billion in outflows over 13 consecutive trading days, removing crucial market support and contributing to a feedback loop that deepened the crash as selling pressure intensified.

About BTC

Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency originally described in a 2008 whitepaper by a person, or group of people, using the alias Satoshi Nakamoto. It was launched soon after, in January 2009.Bitcoin is a peer-to-peer online currency, meaning that all transactions happen directly between equal, independent network participants, without the need for any intermediary to permit or facilitate them. Bitcoin was created, according to Nakamoto’s own words, to allow “online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution.”Some concepts for a similar type of a decentralized electronic currency precede BTC, but Bitcoin holds the distinction of being the first-ever cryptocurrency to come into actual use.
