In times of extreme fear, professionals make their fortunes. While everyone is selling in a panic, let’s calmly analyze what the real numbers say, away from the noise of the headlines.
1. The capitulation of small investors (peak fear)
We just witnessed a massive sell-off of -62,400 bitcoins at a loss by "short-term holders". From an economic and behavioral perspective, this is the definition of "capitulation" at its extreme. This group of investors, who recently entered the market, is the most affected by volatility, and selling at a loss of this magnitude is a classic indicator that panic has peaked, a stage where amateurs often sell at the bottom completely.
2. Liquidation of investment funds
Bitcoin ETFs, which represent institutional and organized cash flows, have seen a liquidity outflow of $4.66 billion from their peak.
This behavior is not new; it reminds us exactly of the scenario we lived through in March 2025. This recurring pattern gives us a clear signal that the market is undergoing a healthy correction cycle, even if it is painful for some.
3. Calm in the futures market (sellers are losing momentum)
The massive selling pressure in the futures market has begun to weaken noticeably. The "Net Taker Volume" index dropped from a peak of $100 million per hour to only $21 million. Technically, this means that sellers are losing their strength and momentum. No one wants to sell at these prices anymore, paving the way for buyers to take control of the market.
4. Purge of leverage (factory reset)
The recent drop was not just an immediate sell-off, but a complete "purge" of leverage.
Where open positions (Open Interest) were cleared across all platforms, meaning that traders who used excessive leverage have exited the market. From a structural standpoint, this is very positive; the market is now healthier, less prone to violent fluctuations caused by consecutive liquidations, and ready to take off from a solid base.
5. Smart money is preparing
And here comes the most important signal I’m closely monitoring:
A flow of $4.55 billion from the USDC stablecoin to exchanges in just 24 hours, which is the highest flow we’ve seen in all recent downturns. In market language, this is called "Dry Powder." Smart money and institutions are not leaving the market; they are converting their assets into stablecoins while waiting for the right moment to buy coins at low prices.
#Summary
The story is clear when piecing together the puzzle:
1️⃣Panic selling by new investors.
2️⃣Complete purge of leverage and speculators.
3️⃣Huge amounts are preparing to enter and are waiting on the sidelines.
Can we drop further?
In the trading world, anything is possible, and risk management is always the priority.
But at this stage, the risk of missing the next upward opportunity seems more appealing than the pain of any potential further drop.
