Bitcoin’s Last Support Before $100K Breaks as 'Mag 7' Skew Flips, Oracle CDS Surges
Bitcoin slipped below the $106,000 support level, exposing the cryptocurrency to a test of the $100,000‑$101,000 zone and a possible deeper decline toward $94,000 or the $85,000 “maximum‑pain” area. At the same time, the put‑call skew for the Magnificent 7 tech stocks inverted for the first time since December, a pattern that historically precedes short‑term consolidation or reversals. Oracle’s credit‑default swap spread surged after the company disclosed a massive AI‑spending program, reflecting heightened investor anxiety over soaring AI costs. Together, these moves signal growing caution across both crypto and tech‑driven risk assets.
