Bitcoin plunged below $80,000 on January 31, 2026, as a weekend crypto market crash erased over $220 billion in value, driven by geopolitical tensions and massive liquidations. Ethereum and XRP led losses, with prices falling sharply amid thin liquidity and reports of Israeli strikes in Gaza and an explosion at Iran's Bandar Abbas port. Traders attribute the downturn to a combination of global risks, U.S. political uncertainty, and forced selling in derivatives markets.
