A wave of futures liquidations, worsening exchange-traded funds outflows, and lower expectations of corporate buys have contributed to significant downward pressure on the Bitcoin price. <\/p>\n<p>This has brought the crypto fear and greed index to extreme fear at 11 points. Still, according to several crypto market analysts, the drop likely does not reflect a broader structural collapse. Instead, the markets need time to recalibrate after an overheated first half of the year.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The crypto fear and greed index on November 20 | Source: <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/alternative.me\/crypto\/fear-and-greed-index\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Alternative<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>According to Jamie Elkaleh, Chief Marketing Officer at Bitget Wallet, the <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/LiquidationData\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">recent $800 million<\/a> in forced liquidations points to excessive leverage in the crypto markets.
