tldr; the crash started on @binance
> @binance $SNDK printed its first large seller-initiated trade at 21:21:59.39 ($407K that second, $1.03M the next). @binance $MU started at 21:21:59 too
> @HyperliquidX first sweeps landed at 21:21:59.87 ($SNDK IOC, $SOXL trigger orders) and the main burst at 21:22:01.1 to 21:22:02.9: roughly ten addresses firing IOC sells across $SNDK, $SOXL, $DRAM, $SKHX, $SKHY and $MU within 1.8 seconds, then a second synchronized burst at 21:22:55.9. All IOC, none reduce-only, all opening shorts
> @binance carried the volume early: $SNDK $21.9M vs $3.1M on @tradexyz in the 21:22 minute, $MU $5.1M vs $0.3M. @HyperliquidX volume only exploded at 21:28 and 21:30 ($10.8M and $9.5M on $MU), which is the liquidation cascade
Oh ! @ComputeDesk in the wild. ticker DESKB300 through the roof, and it's not stopping. Deepseek just made things worse. Wait till monday's B300 print.
@debt_serious Since then companies with non-code based moats (regulatory/compliance, system of record like ERP or EHR, etc.) and cyber have recovered while those like web design platforms or simple workflows have not recovered. Big L/S play.
@debt_serious Basically that AI will replace certain SaaS doing basic workflows, agents may replace seats and reduce pricing power. basically culminating in that AI will substantially reduce growth and terminal value for SaaS businesses.
@HighyieldHarry I worked at a big3 starting in the early 2010s after grad school, was a great option at the time. Would be hard pressed to recommend it now.

@kieranwgoodwin Kieran,
My understanding is that this 15% debt is about 1.3B - very small slice of the most junior debt. Curious if you think this is really a show stopper. Clip from chamath on all-in pod.
