Bitcoin experienced a sharp 29% decline following a flash crash on October 10, 2025, resulting in $19 billion in liquidations. This significant drop saw Bitcoin's price fall from a peak of $126,199 to $89,800. Despite the turmoil in the crypto market, the M7 ETF recorded an 8% increase, underscoring a growing divergence between cryptocurrency and traditional market performance. Analyst Ash Crypto highlighted that $500 million in liquidations are occurring almost every other day, sparking concerns about potential institutional manipulation or large funds covering losses. The M7 ETF's steady upward trajectory, marked by higher lows and highs, contrasts with Bitcoin's recent volatility.
