Bitcoin tumbles back near last week's lows as AI fears crush tech and precious metals plunge

Bitcoin has experienced a significant decline, falling back toward the lows it reached last week, as concerns over artificial intelligence negatively impact technology stocks and lead to a sharp decrease in the prices of precious metals. This downturn reflects a broader market sentiment where fears surrounding AI advancements, potentially disrupting various industries, are triggering widespread sell-offs in both tech equities and commodities like gold and silver. As a result, investors are reacting cautiously, driving Bitcoin down along with these other asset classes. source: https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2026/02/12/bitcoin-tumbles-back-near-last-week-s-lows-as-ai-fears-crush-tech-and-precious-metals-plunge
