🐋 Whale Arthur Hayes Liquidates $13M – What Warning for Crypto?
🔥 Shocking on-chain: The legendary whale pulls back!
In just 6 hours, Arthur Hayes – co-founder of BitMEX, quietly liquidated over $13 million USD in crypto:
🔻 2,373 ETH (~8.3M USD)
🔻 7.76M ENA (~4.6M USD)
🔻 38.86B PEPE (~414K USD)
The transaction was discovered by Lookonchain – a platform tracking whale cash flow.
Shortly after, Hayes posted a chilling status:
"BTC testing $100K – ETH returning to $3K."
"Global credit is tightening. Nominal GDP no longer has momentum."
📉 Why does the whale's action cause a stir?
Hayes is not just an investor – he understands cycles.
When he withdraws & warns, the market must listen.
Signals from the liquidation:
🔺 BTC is in the "loss of momentum" zone: 117K–119K, not breaking out.
🔺 Hot altcoins being liquidated → about to correct?
🔺 Macroeconomics worsening noticeably: US NFP sharply declines, tariffs about to be reactivated.
📊 AI Perspective: Is history repeating itself?
Similar to early 2019:
BTC rises quickly → whales take profits
Altcoins soar → liquidity fails to keep up
Whales reduce their positions → retail FOMO = correction approaching
Prices haven't dropped sharply, but whale positions have "changed color".
📅 Weekend & New Week Forecast:
BTC: Likely to sideways around $115K–$120K, not clearly trending.
ETH: Could test $3,200 – $3,000 if macroeconomics worsen.
Altcoins: Cash flow is withdrawing, only hold coins with volume & real application.
Meme coins: Dangerous! Whales have taken profits beforehand.
✅ Conclusion for Traders:
🐋 When whales pull back, traders should not increase their positions.
🔎 Observe cash flow instead of charts.
⏳ The market is not bad – but a corrective move is necessary.
