Bitcoin falls below $73,000 as Fed crypto bank dispute, hot US inflation weigh on market

Bitcoin experienced a sharp sell-off on November 11, 2026, briefly dropping under $73,000 before recovering part of the decline. The move came amid stronger-than-expected US inflation data, significant liquidations in the derivatives market, and heightened concern about the Federal Reserve’s stance toward crypto banking, according to reports from CryptoNews and CoinGecko data. CoinGecko reported Bitcoin at $73,971 as of 08:13 UTC, reflecting a decline of 1.07% in 24 hours and a 12.05% fall over the past 30 days. The sell-off tracked broader weakness, with Ethereum , XRP, and Solana all posting losses during the same period. October’s Consumer Price Index rose 0.4% month over month, surpassing economists’ expectations of 0.3%. Core inflation also recorded a 0.3% increase versus a 0.2% forecast.
