I am speculating here and this is nothing more than a hunch:
1.Bitcoin: Some of the native Bitcoin OGs may be bored with BTC. With ETFs and corporate treasuries now having a major influence on price action, they no longer have the same impact they once did. The recent quantum computing panic could be an opportunity for some of them to shift attention toward something new where they feel they still have influence and control.
2.Big Banks vs. the Clarity Act: If large financial institutions believe the Clarity Act could significantly disrupt parts of their business, the long-term impact might outweigh any short-term losses from crypto market weakness. One possible theory is that undermining confidence in crypto through fear, panic, and losses could make legislators view crypto as too risky for everyday investors, reducing support for the Clarity Act.
3.Liquidity Sweep: This could simply be a large-scale liquidity event designed to shake out weak hands before major players accumulate at lower prices. It may even be an opportunity for governments, institutions, or other large entities to increase exposure at more attractive valuations.
https://t.co/JJm2j2sBpG Risk-Off Environment: The world may be shifting into a risk-off phase. Rising oil prices can slow GDP growth across many countries, particularly developing economies that benefited from lower energy costs. As oil prices rise, the balance may tilt back in favor of the United States. In that environment, U.S. Treasuries and bonds become more attractive relative to risk assets. Higher inflation concerns and the possibility of interest rate hikes could leave investors with less appetite and less disposable capital for speculative investments such as crypto.
Again, these are just theories and observations, not facts

May be just a hedge? If you look at it there were huge flows I mean huge flows the month where the last run up happened. And a part of that flow was taken down the day before or the same day the earnings was going to be released. Itโs like someone knew about the board changes and guidance.
Could it be just some bag holder or some hedge not sure. I may be missing some info or logically may not be correct. The price action is not aligning for some reason
I think you are partially right. They are not hoping to buy low. The loss to their business if clarity act passes is larger than their crypto portfolio. They are just doing anything and everything to destroy crypto, to put doubt in the elected representatives who are going to vote for it. If crypto losses causes financial issues for large groups of common people highly unlikely someone will vote for the clarity act.
@realwolfofdubai@fundstrat@BitMNR Wild theory: What if the big banks are intentionally causing crypto to underperform as part of a fight against $COIN and the Clarity Act? ๐ค
What do you think?
