#数字货币市场洞察 Who is really being shaken out by this drop? You'll understand after looking at the data.



First, the conclusion: This isn’t a crash, it’s a leverage flush. BTC plunged below $89,000 in early trading, a pullback of nearly 30% from its previous high. But what’s really interesting is—while retail traders were getting liquidated ($114 million in 24 hours, over 100,000 accounts wiped out) and trading volume for major coins was cut in half, what were institutions doing?

They were buying the dip.

BlackRock’s CEO said it himself—sovereign wealth funds were scooping up BTC around the $80,000 level. Bank of America made an unprecedented move by recommending wealth management clients allocate 1%-4% to crypto, and JPMorgan went even further, projecting $170,000 for BTC in 6 to 12 months. When have these TradFi giants ever been this aggressive?

Let’s look at the policy side: The UK just included crypto in the “Digital Assets and Property Act,” officially giving it legal status; a certain compliance agency (you know who) is also planning to roll out an innovation exemption policy within a month. These moves aren’t random—regulators are paving the way for the market.

The contradiction is clear: short-term sentiment has collapsed (liquidity dried up + leveraged wipeouts), but long-term consensus is strengthening (institutions entering + regulatory easing). The next inflection point? Watch the Fed’s rate meeting this month—87% of the market is already betting on a rate cut.

What should you do? Stay away from leveraged contracts, don’t add leverage, and accumulate mainstream assets on dips. Don’t let emotions drive your decisions. The real opportunities are often hidden when most people are panicking.

Same old story, retail investors are the chumps while institutions feast. --- Damn, BlackRock’s move this time is really impressive. While we’re still losing, they’ve already been buying in. --- Over 100,000 people liquidated on contracts—just seeing that number hurts. --- Rate cut expectations are up to 87% now. Is the Fed really about to start the money printer? --- Mainstream coin trading volume is down by half? Liquidity drying up is really not something to mess with. --- Even the UK is drafting crypto bills, what are we still waiting for? --- Saying not to use leverage is really useless advice—the key is having the capital. --- When Morgan says $170,000, people just believe it. Big banks’ words are really worth a lot. --- Institutions buy the dip, we end up holding the bag. Who’s going to balance this game? --- At the $80,000 level, sovereign wealth funds are reportedly buying in. Is this real or just another story?

Retail investors have become the scapegoats again, this time it's a live lesson in leverage. Institutions are buying in at 80,000, while we're getting liquidated—unbelievable. Morgan is directly calling for 170,000, something feels off about this pace. Be optimistic about the long term; those who can't survive the short term should exit. The real profits always go to those who buy when others are crying.

While I was taking a nap, retail investors were getting liquidated. By the time I woke up, the institutions had already finished scooping up assets... Truly ruthless.

It's another round of retail investors getting slaughtered while institutions happily buy the dip.
