  @TedPillows That OG whale's been cashing out alright. Confirmed the deposits: about 40,500 ETH total to Bitstamp over the last couple days, worth around $125M at today's $3,086 price. They grabbed it cheap years ago, so this is straight profit-taking from a long-dormant wallet. Still got $80M left in holdings, which could hit exchanges next if they keep going. Short-term, it's bearish noise for ETH. Spot selling like this ramps up exchange supply in a low-volume grind (trading's down 99% from average), and with longs crowded in perps (funding at +0.01%, ratio 2.58:1), it risks flushing some $15M in liquidations if price slips below $3,083 support. We've seen similar dumps cause 2-5% dips lately, especially with the broader market in neutral consolidation, BTC flat at $90,577. But it's not panic territory. ETFs soaked up $140M in ETH inflows last week, building a floor around $3,000, and microstructure's balanced, no big unwind yet. Whale positioning overall neutral, liqs even split. This fits the routine supply shuffle from early holders diversifying, not a regime breaker. Watch $3,083 hold for stability, or a break targets $2,929 quick. Upside needs volume above $46M to push $3,098 resistance. Data leans cautious but contained, no edge for a big move either way right now.

  @Bitstamp You're going exactly against the principles of BITCON. You're terrible hypocrites when you post such a tweet about BTC and the white paper here and do the exact opposite on your platform. You should be ashamed.

  🚨 🇪🇺 The EU’s MiCA deadline is just 2 weeks away. • Only 210 of 1,200+ crypto firms with pre-MiCA registrations have secured full CASP licenses — a conversion rate of just 17%. • Kraken, Coinbase, Bitstamp, OKX, Crypto. com & Bitpanda are licensed. • $USDC & EURC are MiCA-compliant. ❌ $USDT remains outside EU-regulated markets. After July 1, unlicensed firms must either get approved, shut down, merge, or leave the EU market. 🚨

  Daily Market Report #756 It’s black Friday. Red sea again, deeper than yesterday. So much news that it is hard to even know where to start. My daily buy on BTC and ETH triggered again at these prices. I said it yesterday, and it keeps being true: You always get a chance to get in deeper. I held my DCA above $70K, stacked everything below, and the market just keeps handing out lower entries. I am not happy the market is bleeding, but I am happy I stayed disciplined for it. Bitcoin weekly RSI dropped to 19, the lowest since the December 2022 bear market bottom. The last time Bitcoin was this oversold on the weekly was the literal bottom of the last bear market. The Zcash story is the one that stings most this morning. ZEC crashed 33% overnight to $398. Zooko disclosed a critical counterfeiting vulnerability in the Orchard pool that could have allowed unlimited undetectable ZEC minting. They shipped an emergency fix, but the damage to confidence is done. A privacy coin is only worth anything if the privacy actually works, and a counterfeiting bug is the worst possible kind of flaw for that thesis. Monero is down 8% to $331 in sympathy, but with no bug of its own. This is exactly why the Monero camp says boring and battle-tested beats clever and new. Gold $4,448. Silver $72.79. Oil $93, still hovering near $100 all week. US oil reserves are at the lowest level since 2004. Iran says there is no tangible progress in peace talks. Israel is continuing Lebanon operations despite the ceasefire. North Korea unveiled a nuclear fuel facility. South Africa’s court ruled Bitcoin is money and capital, a real legal milestone buried under the bloodbath. Bitcoin $63,425, down 1%. Dominance 55.9%. Crypto ETFs saw $4.4B leave over 13 sessions. BTC ETFs saw another $397M out. Mt. Gox moved another 116 BTC to Bitstamp. The Strategy story has gone from a crack to a real wound. Saylor is now sitting on an $11.5B unrealized loss. The STRC preferred share slipped to $0.96, below par, which is exactly the pressure point that tool I mentioned yesterday was built to track. Below $60K, the dividend machine starts forcing the math. Crypto Rover closed a $1M+ BTC short at $61K and is calling a capitulation bottom. The forced sellers and the bottom-callers are screaming at each other, which is what the actual bottom sounds like. Ethereum $1,740, down 3.1%. ETH dominance 9.2%. BitMine filed a 9.5% preferred stock offering to buy more ETH, doubling down into the worst tape, while their existing stack sits deep underwater. The ETH treasury trade is now under real stress and being judged harshly. Solana $67.77, down 4.3%. TVL still bleeding, down 6.1% on the week. SOL holders have had the longest, most punishing stretch of any major. XRP $1.14, down 4.7%. Ripple’s RLUSD went multichain via Wormhole across 40+ ecosystems, and XRP still lost $1.15. Real product, no price relief. BNB $601, down 1.9%. Holding $600 by a thread. Hyperliquid $62.84, down 14.1%. The relative strength that held all month finally broke. Could Hyperliquid also get catched on hacks.  Hayes dumped his entire HYPE position, and the chart followed, down 15%+ alongside NEAR. The Grayscale HYPG staking ETF launched today into a 14% drop. I faded HYPE the entire way up and felt sick about it, and now the day it finally cracks hard is the day Hayes calls the whole top. NEAR Intents topped $20B volume with TVL at an all-time high, even as the token fell 19%. The product kept growing while the price got destroyed. That tells you this is market-wide deleveraging, not a Hyperliquid or NEAR problem. Chainlink $7.86, down 4.4%. Under $8 now. Citi says $8.2T tokenized by 2030, CCIP a key standard, JPMorgan and Citi launching a tokenized deposit network next year, and the token is at $7.86. Sui co-founder announced confidential transfers coming to Sui, shielding amounts while making unauthorized minting impossible by design, which is a direct shot at exactly the flaw that just hit Zcash. The privacy race continues, but the bar just got raised. ADA dropped below $0.16 for the first time since 2020 as Hoskinson announced a break and then said more Cardano projects are about to die. A founder publicly saying his own ecosystem’s projects are dying while the token hits a five-year low is about as bleak as it gets. The casino burns alongside everything else. Tether launched a gold-backed Visa card. Stripe, Visa, and Mastercard are near a joint stablecoin platform. JPMorgan, Citi, and major US banks plan a tokenized deposit network next year. Anthropic is calling for a global pause in AI development, warning models are approaching the ability to self-improve without human intervention. The company building the frontier model is publicly saying the technology is getting close to recursive self-improvement and asking the world to slow down. Whatever you think of the motive, that is not a normal corporate statement. OpenAI and Anthropic also signed an anti-bioweapon letter. The AI labs are warning about existential risk with one hand and filing to IPO at peak euphoria with the other. Three mega AI IPOs, market highs before September, then take profit. When the most hyped private companies on earth rush to sell to the public at the exact moment their own leaders warn about the dangers, you are watching distribution at the top dressed up as a milestone. That is how bottoms are built, even when it feels like the floor is gone. What are you watching going into the weekend?

  @Seadevil76 down 70% from ATH despite grayscale filing and bitstamp listing. 256 subnets generating revenue, subnet ideathon pulling devs in, but price bleeding since hitting $300 two weeks ago. the gap between fundamentals and price action is getting wider. market already priced in the news or something else is holding it back.

  @MaxCrypto The CVD breakdown makes the picture quite clear: the majority of the sell pressure during this leg down is Binance-driven, while flows on Coinbase, OKX and Bitstamp appear comparatively muted. This typically signals not broad market risk-off, but localized whale distribution, often aimed at triggering liquidity pockets below intraday support levels. Once Binance’s aggressive sellers push price into a thin zone, the move accelerates as stops and perp liquidations cascade, visible in the sharp drop toward $88.9K. From a market-structure perspective, this doesn’t yet resemble a macro trend reversal. It’s more consistent with inventory rotation by large players, exploiting weekend-level liquidity conditions ahead of U.S. close. The key metric to monitor now is whether CVD stabilizes and whether spot markets, especially Coinbase, begin absorbing. If spot buyers step in, this selling wave likely marks exhaustion rather than continuation. A retest of liquidity around $88.5K–$89K is plausible, but unless CVD continues to trend sharply lower across all exchanges (not just Binance), the probability of a sustained breakdown remains limited.

  Four “features” I want to see Robinhood ($HOOD) implement @vladtenev @RobinhoodApp International Markets: Open up Europe, Japan, UK, and Canada to US users. Robinhood earns on FX conversion spreads (~50bps), wider securities lending revenue (foreign borrow rates run 2-4x US names), and a premium Gold tier for real time international data and lower fees. Bitstamp licenses + tokenization rails make $HOOD uniquely positioned vs legacy brokers. Forex Trading: Direct currency pairs (EUR/USD, GBP/JPY etc.) with 24/5 access. Robinhood earns on bid/ask spread markups, overnight financing on leveraged positions, and margin interest. Pairs naturally with international expansion, same FX infrastructure, different product wrapper. High margin and recurring revenue. Again can offer lower fees for gold members. Mutual Funds, Bonds, Treasuries: Captures the “safe money” currently sitting at Fidelity and Schwab. Robinhood earns on bond markups and spreads, cash sweep revenue on inflows, and unlocks 401(k) rollover capture (impossible without mutual fund support). This is the single biggest TAM expansion available because most US retirement assets sit in products HOOD literally can’t accept today. Robinhood Funds: Examples “Robinhood Retail Sentiment Index” and ETF that tracks the top 50-100 stocks held by Robinhood users. “Robinhood Crypto and Tokenization Index” ETF that entire crypto economy ($COIN $MSTR $MARA $HOOD) to name a few. Robinhood would make margin on expense ratios.

  @Coins_Kid On October 10th xrp crashed from $2.30 on bitstamp all the way down to $1.58. When that happened it bounced in 30 minutes all the way up to $2.63. It then has been in a corrective move for over 2 and 1/2 months. That is not a wave C behavior, that is wave 2 behavior.

  Ironically, the more 'compliant' the exchange, the more I worry about the problems they'll cause me. Bitstamp bombarded me with extra SoF documents and wallet address verifications. Want to switch to Coinbase but worried it'll be the same or worse. How common are proof-of-wealth / source-of-funds requests on Coinbase these days? Coinbase already closed my account once. Since creating a new one I worry to actually use it. Btw Binance, Bybit, and OKX (before it moved to OKX EU).... not a single issue since 2017. CS is great, no extra documentation requests, just KYC doc updates. But Binance has been shady with their listings, pumps & dumps etc. Not really a fan anymore. Also for fiat in/out, banks probably prefer Coinbase... Is Kraken any better? Their fiat deposit limits are relatively low and they won't raise them for me. Not a great sign. Thoughts?

  @projectpips @Bitstamp You really don`t grasp the concept of a price glitch. It`s a glitch because a price is being displayed that was never the real price.
