Everyone’s posting about it, but nobody seems to understand what actually happened.
You need to look at the flows, not the chart.
Within minutes you had Wintermute, Binance, Coinbase, and ETF linked wallets all getting active at the same time.
Large blocks moving exchange to exchange, HUGE market buys hitting thin books, then just as fast… THEY DUMPED IT ALL.
I’m attaching the Arkham screen because the flows tell the real story.
Coins moving IN to exchanges right after the pump.
THAT’S NOT A COINCIDENCE.
Here’s the setup they wait for.
Liquidity: LOW Leverage: HIGH Funding: STRETCHED Open interest: LOADED
Then they run the same play every time.
They pump price fast on thin books to trigger FOMO and wipe shorts. Retail sees green candles and apes into longs because it looks like a breakout.
THIS IS THE TRAP.
The moment enough people are stuck in leverage, the coins hit exchanges and the selling starts. They DUMP into the demand they just created, price snaps down, and the fresh longs get LIQUIDATED. That is how they farm BOTH sides with no news.
BTC doesn’t move like this because of headlines. It moves like this because leverage piles up and someone decides it’s PAYDAY.
I’ve studied macro for 10 years and I called almost every major market top, including the October BTC ATH.

🚨 BITCOIN IS BEING MANIPULATED BY EXCHANGES!
You just watched BTC pump to $95K, then instantly dump to $91K.
That is NOT normal.
That is a LIQUIDITY HUNT.
Same script, over and over.
$89K → $95K → $91K
$85K → $88K → $84K
$79K → $85K → $78K
