Almost every day, $BTC gets hit right at the #U.S. market open (10 AM).

Today was the same—hours of green wiped out in minutes.

This isn’t random.

The pattern is too perfect: sharp dump at the open → slow recovery after.

Many market watchers point to one thing: high-frequency trading firms pushing price into liquidity.

Jane Street is the name most people are connecting to this behavior.

They have:

• massive speed

• deep liquidity

• huge BTC exposure through BlackRock’s IBIT (around $2.5B)

The play seems simple:

dump on the open, collect liquidity, reload lower.

So most of these moves aren’t “macro fear”—just big players stacking more BTC.

When they’re done accumulating, BTC won’t react like this anymore.
