"This explains the $60K drop. Simple version: Hong Kong hedge fund(s) running levered IBIT options + Silver trade + JPY carry = all blew up at once. $10.7B IBIT volume = 2X normal = forced liquidation. Not fundamental bearishness. Mechanical deleveraging. When leverage clears price finds equilibrium. This was the highest volume day on $IBIT ever by a factor of nearly 2x trading $10.7B today. Additionally roughly $900M in options premiums were traded today also the highest ever for IBIT. Given these facts and the way $BTC and $SOL traded down in lockstep today (normally This was the highest"

"Had to read it a few times to fully understand what it means but Here it is clean and simple. IBIT just had a record day in volume and options while BTC and SOL sold off together without the usual cascade of liquidations. That suggests forced selling not panic. The theory is a large non-crypto hedge fund likely HK-based blew up a leveraged IBIT options trade possibly tied to JPY carry funding and losses in silver. Because the fund is isolated and non-crypto CT wouldnt see it. Proof if any would show up later in 13F filings. This reads less like crypto selling and more like balance-sheet"

"Had to read it a few times to fully understand what it means but Here it is clean and simple. IBIT just had a record day in volume and options while BTC and SOL sold off together without the usual cascade of liquidations. That suggests forced selling not panic. The theory is a large non-crypto hedge fund likely HK-based blew up a leveraged IBIT options trade possibly tied to JPY carry funding and losses in silver. Because the fund is isolated and non-crypto CT wouldnt see it. Proof if any would show up later in 13F filings. This reads less like crypto selling and more like balance-sheet"
