fear

I’m sorry to tell y’all , but this is the reality - check out first graph which is Nasdaq , and second which is $BTC . When Nasdaq is falling , BTC follows. It’s not because of the market, it’s because they both represents #economy and #fear .
At this point we are still on #greed levels… but imagine Nasdaq correction 10% , it’s equals to BTC 40%…. Let’s talk about reality and past history. From its highs after #Halving BTC always corrects 60~70% from its highs… now do your math
It wouldn’t happen tomorrow, it wouldn’t happen in one month… give it 1-2 years and you will see as less as 50.000k per coin , my prediction as low as 35.000 in 2 year distance.

Thanks

The cryptocurrency market recently witnessed one of its most turbulent stretches of the year, as a sudden price correction triggered a staggering $2 billion in liquidations. While such a massive wipeout usually leads to a mass exodus of retail participants, a surprising trend has emerged: a significant portion of traders are refusing to blink, holding onto their remaining positions with remarkable persistence.
The $2 Billion Reckoning
The liquidation event, which primarily affected over-leveraged long positions, saw nearly 400,000 traders lose their collateral within a 72-hour window. This "flush out" was accelerated by Bitcoin’s sharp dip from its Q4 peaks, catching those who were betting on an uninterrupted rally. Historically, such events lead to "capitulation," where fear drives people to sell their assets and exit the market.
Why are Traders Staying Put?
Instead of the usual panic, on-chain data and exchange metrics suggest a different story this time. Several factors contribute to this "diamond hands" mentality:
* Institutional Backstop: Many traders believe that with the entry of major institutional ETFs and corporate treasuries, the "floor" for prices is much higher than in previous cycles.
* The "V-Shaped" Recovery Hope: Recent market history has shown that deep dips are often followed by rapid recoveries. Traders are increasingly wary of selling at the bottom only to watch the market bounce back days later.
* Shift to Spot Holding: After being "burned" in the futures and derivatives market, a noticeable shift is occurring where traders are moving their capital into spot holdings—owning the actual asset rather than a contract—to avoid future liquidation risks.

While resilience can be a sign of a maturing market, analysts warn that it can also be a double-edged sword. When traders refuse to cut losses, it can lead to "zombie positions" that keep the market in a state of stagnant volatility. If the expected recovery doesn't materialize soon, the "holding" strategy could turn into a slow-motion exit.
As it stands, the "Fear & Greed Index" has dipped into neutral territory, but the lack of a full-scale panic sell-off suggests that the long-term bullish narrative remains intact for many. The question now is whether the market has enough liquidity to absorb this defiance or if another wave of corrections is on the horizon.
