Bitcoin ran from about $84,200 down to near $81,000 before recovering to roughly $82,080, and the move took $672 million of liquidations with it over 24 hours, again weighted toward longs. KuCoin's 00:00 UTC cut has BTC at $81,858.6, down 2.27%, and ETH at $2,447.15, down 3.54%. Fear and Greed dropped to 57 from 69, giving back the whole climb of the past three sessions in one day. The altcoin tape was worse: BOME fell over 30%, ENA and NEAR each lost more than 13%, and BLUR dropped nearly 30% after Blur said its frontend will close on November 12. That is now two long flushes inside a week, which is the pattern of a market repeatedly trying to price a rally that keeps failing to arrive.
