<ul> 
 <li>Over $1 billion was liquidated from the crypto market in 24 hours, causing widespread investor frustration.</li> 
 <li>Economic panic reduces interest in risky assets, pulling significant money from the crypto market.</li> 
</ul> 
Recent findings <a href="https://x.com/WatcherGuru/status/1820349384292184536">reveal</a> that an astounding $1,000,000,000 has been liquidated from the crypto market in the last 24 hours. 
Apart from stablecoins, no other crypto asset has gained value throughout the same time span as of this writing. All assets on the top 100 cryptocurrency list, including Bitcoin, <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/smart-money-investor-sells-eth-before-market-crash/">Ethereum</a>, BNB, Solana, and XRP, are in red, which is discouraging for many.

<h2 id="strong-economic-panic-reduces-investor-interest-leading-to-massive-crypto-market-sell-off-strong">Economic Panic Reduces Investor Interest, Leading to Massive Crypto Market Sell-Off&nbsp;</h2> 
Panic in the economy has lowered investor interest in risky assets, removing huge amounts of money from the crypto market and lowering the total market cap below $2.5 trillion. 
The current price of the top cryptocurrency, Bitcoin (BTC), is about $52,192.02, down 13.79% over the last 24 hours. It appears to have partially rebounded after going below $50,000 a few hours ago.

Also, Robinhood has suspended 24-hour trading due to excessive volatility and an overwhelming selling wave. The panic is obvious in the digital asset market, leading many to wonder if the bullish momentum has come to an end.

According to a prior CNF <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/bitcoin-price-plummets-below-53000-reasons-for-the-meltdown/">report</a>, various reasons have contributed to the large sell-off in the cryptocurrency market. These include Japan’s interest rate hike, disappointing employment data from the US, the possibility of a US interest rate cut in September, and a massive sell-off by Jump Crypto. 
The continuous confrontation between Iran and Israel, which has the potential to escalate into war, is also a crucial factor influencing investor risk appetite. 
On the other hand, as we previously <a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/telegrams-hamster-kombat-sees-massive-growth-in-iran/">noted</a>, Iran has opposition to Hamster Kombat, a small game based on Telegram that the Iranian government regards as undue Western influence, which adds another degree of intricacy. 
Also, the Deputy Military Chief of Iran believes that these games are an attempt by Western powers to draw Iran’s attention away from the presidential election and hinder their ability to defeat their rivals.
