Bitcoin (BTC) headed toward the $66,000 mark early Tuesday, erasing last week's gains that reached the $70,000 mark.
Earlier in the morning, the cryptocurrency dropped to the $66,000 level, but then regained some of its losses. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $67,007, representing a 3.7% loss over the past 24 hours on trading volume of $39.5 million.
According to some crypto enthusiasts, these losses have occurred as market sentiment has deteriorated due to a large-scale movement of BTC from US government-linked portfolios.
