\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKey Takeaways<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bitcoin slid under $112K with $600 million in losses and $475 million liquidations. Traders now watch $110K as key defense against deeper downside.<\/p>\n

On the 24th of August, Bitcoin [BTC]<\/a> broke below $112k. And it wasn\u2019t just another dip. Instead, it triggered a clear risk-off rotation. <\/p>\n

The move was quickly validated as nearly $600 million in Realized Losses hit the market the next day, marking the month\u2019s biggest flush.<\/p>\n

The fallout? A $475 million Long Liquidation sweep followed, the deepest<\/a> washout of leveraged longs since the April tariff-driven FUD. <\/p>\n

In short, one support break was all it took to set off a sharp flush, with $110k now the critical line on the chart.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin\u2019s fragile market structure exposed!<\/b><\/p>\n

One look at Bitcoin\u2019s chart shows why $112k carried weight.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On the 2nd of August, BTC retested this support after topping out at $123k just twenty days earlier, and from there, it ripped 10.7% in two weeks to notch a fresh all-time high.<\/p>\n

However, when the next retest failed to deliver a similar bounce, market structure flipped bearish. As confirmed by $600 million in Realized Losses, as HODLers<\/a> with higher cost basis rushed to exit<\/p>\n

The result? Bitcoin posted three straight sessions of lower lows.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The first wick tapped $110,305, the second $110,185, and the third stretched down to $108,761. Naturally, that left short-term support under strain, with bears pressing into liquidity pockets just below $110k.<\/p>\n

Simply put, BTC is clinging to $110k as its last near-term defense. If this level gives way, the path opens for a deeper drawdown into the $107k-$105k zone where heavier bid interest is likely to emerge.<\/p>\n

BTC risks $100k slide without macro boost<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Crypto Volatility Index (CVI) read<\/a> 47.69, at press time, showing moderate chop in the market<\/p>\n

Even after the break, panic hadn\u2019t kicked in. The Fear & Greed Index held neutral at 47, up four points from yesterday.<\/p>\n

Spot ETFs flipped positive too, signaling steady bid-support creeping back. Meanwhile, Open Interest (OI) stayed muted, meaning leverage hasn\u2019t crowded back in yet. <\/p>\n

On top of that, this kept BTC structurally bearish\u2014though any pickup could quickly flip the bias.<\/p>\n

Flows favor ETH, not BTC<\/strong>

However, one key headwind for Bitcoin remains the ETH\/BTC ratio. <\/p>\n

Flows into Ethereum [ETH]<\/a>, running about $0.9B per day (silver), are now catching up to BTC\u2019s inflows (orange).<\/p>\n

On top of that, while BTC ETFs have turned positive, ETH ETFs have raked in over $1 billion across the last four transactions, showing capital rotating aggressively into ETH.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Having said that, unless a macro catalyst like a Fed pivot lands, whales are likely to keep risk-off flows rotating into Ethereum, leaving Bitcoin exposed to a deeper slide toward $100k.<\/p>\n
