- BTC/USD is range-bound after a sharp sell-off during late Wednesday hours.
- The downside pressure is set to increase on a breakthrough below $7,500.
Bitcoin consolidates losses marginally above $7,600 handle after a sharp sell-off during late Wednesday trading. The first digital coin is vulnerable to further losses as bearish sentiments dominate the market. Binance technical issues might have served as a trigger for a sell-off, while a sustainable move below critical $7,800 sped up the movement.
