Total: $3.5 billion in BTC offloaded across a single hour window.
This coordinated dumping raises serious questions about market manipulation. When institutional whales move this volume simultaneously, retail traders get squeezed hard. The timing and synchronized nature of these sells suggests either coordinated decision-making or a reaction to the same market signal—either way, it's worth watching closely.

Here we go again with this routine? Institutions colluding to dump the market—are retail investors really getting what they deserve?

Coming back with this again? Large institutions collectively dumping has long been the old trick. What are retail investors still surprised about?

Look at the clinical manifestation of this data... $350 million concentrated outflow within an hour. This is not a market adjustment; it's acute capital bleeding. The problem is that BlackRock and Fidelity's position reductions are noticeably smaller, while exchanges and Wintermute are under pressure. This asymmetry is quite intriguing.
URGENT: Why Bitcoin Just Tanked

• Major compliance platform: 9,781 BTC
• BlackRock: 2,921 BTC
• Fidelity: 4,008 BTC
Total: $3.5 billion in BTC offloaded across a single hour window.
