Could you elaborate on the reasons behind the recent drop in Bitcoin's price, specifically below the 68,000 threshold? Was it due to a sudden influx of sellers in the market? Or was it triggered by concerns surrounding regulatory interventions? Was there a lack of buyer demand? Additionally, did this price dip have any correlation with other cryptocurrencies or the overall market sentiment? Clarifying these points would greatly assist in understanding the underlying factors behind this significant drop in value.

One theory is that Mt. Gox may have transferred the Bitcoins to repay its creditors, who were left with unpaid debts following the exchange's closure.

This decline was attributed to the now-defunct Bitcoin exchange, Mt. Gox, which transferred a substantial amount of Bitcoin to an unidentified wallet.
