Suspected "1011 insider whale" Garrett Jin: The pullback in precious metals triggered profit-taking, and funds shifted to relatively undervalued assets like BTC and ETH

BTC-1,78%
ETH-1,21%

Odaily Planet Daily reported that the suspected “1011 Insider Whale” Garrett Jin posted on the X platform that the prices of precious metals such as platinum, palladium, and silver have experienced significant declines, while Bitcoin and Ethereum prices have begun to rebound. Currently, the market positions in these precious metals are overly crowded, and the short-term overbought conditions have increased risks and triggered profit-taking. As a result, market funds are shifting from overheated trading to relatively undervalued assets. Garrett Jin previously stated that the rise in silver, palladium, and platinum was merely a short-term squeeze and unsustainable. Once prices start to reverse, it is likely to drag down gold prices as well, with market funds moving from precious metals to Bitcoin and Ethereum.

BTC 15-minute drop of 1.75%: Derivatives liquidity deterioration and capital withdrawals in sync weigh on prices

From 01:30 to 01:45 (UTC) on 2026-04-12, the BTC price saw significant volatility within the 71,560.0–73,017.1 USDT range. The candlestick return rate recorded -1.75%, and the amplitude reached 2.00%. During this period, market attention increased, the trading atmosphere clearly became more cautious, and heightened volatility triggered short-term capital vigilance. The primary driving force behind this unusual move is the continued deterioration of liquidity in the derivatives market: CME futures open interest fell to a 14-month low, and institutional arbitrage capital accelerated its withdrawal.
