If you still think $BTC trades like a pure supply-and-demand asset, you NEED to read this.
Because that market is basically gone.
What you’re watching isn’t normal price action.
It’s not “weak hands.”
It’s not vibes.
And it damn sure isn’t retail panic-selling.
Most people have NO clue what’s actually happening.
And by the time it clicks for the masses… the damage is already done.
This didn’t start today.
It’s been building quietly for months.
And now it’s speeding up.
Here’s the real truth:
The moment supply can be synthetically created… scarcity is DEAD.
And when scarcity is dead, price stops being discovered on-chain…
…and starts being set in the derivatives casino.
That’s EXACTLY what happened to Bitcoin.
And it’s the same structural trap that already happened to:
→ Gold
→ Silver
→ Oil
→ Stocks
Once derivatives take over… the real asset stops calling the shots.
The original Bitcoin thesis was built on:
→ A hard cap of 21 million
→ No rehypothecation
That died the moment Wall Street layered this on top:
→ Cash-settled futures
→ Perpetual swaps
→ Options
→ ETFs
→ Prime broker lending
→ Wrapped BTC
→ Total return swaps
From that moment forward, Bitcoin supply became theoretically INFINITE.
Not on-chain.
But in price discovery — which is what ACTUALLY controls the market.
And that’s the part nobody wants to admit.
Here’s the key concept:
Synthetic Float Ratio (SFR).
Once synthetic supply overwhelms real supply, price stops responding to demand.
It responds to:
→ positioning
→ hedging
→ liquidations
→ leverage blowups
Wall Street isn’t “investing” in Bitcoin.
They’re doing what they do in EVERY derivatives-dominated market:
1️⃣ Create unlimited paper BTC
2️⃣ Short into rallies
3️⃣ Trigger liquidations
4️⃣ Cover lower
5️⃣ Repeat
This isn’t trading.
This is INVENTORY MANUFACTURING.
One real BTC can now back multiple claims at the same time:
→ an ETF share
→ a futures contract
→ a perpetual swap
→ an options delta hedge
→ a broker loan
→ a structured note
That’s 6 claims on ONE coin.
That is NOT a free market.
That’s a fractional-reserve price system wearing a Bitcoin costume.
Ignore it if you want…
…but don’t act surprised later.
I’ve been calling Bitcoin tops and bottoms for over a decade — and I’ll do it again in 2026.
