Couple things today:
Lots of adoption and on chain news to digest through
Let’s skip all that for fundaments
Hash Rate is 1.01 ZHs most secure the network has ever been, in 2021 at ath price Hashrate was 185 EHs….
Exchange supply is lower, more custodied on exchange wallets as well, hard metric to get accurate but falling nonetheless
#bitcoin price…. Remember price is a reflection of Marketcap and Marketcap is made up of Market orders
Aka the order book
If your exchange doesn’t have an orderbook, it doesn’t add to the Marketcap, you’re doing the scarcity option
Binance and Bybit have the order books nicely monopolized with price oracles owned by Binance, Coin Marketcap is owned by Binance, bitfinex also have an orderbook hence why whales play games there
What does not add to Marketcap is:
Saylor
ETFs
You
Me
Companies
Sovereign funds and alike
Trust me, a billionaire isn’t opening the bybit app and sending tether to the platform to buy bitcoin at multiple prices and play the retail market
They’re buying off chain and not effecting the Marketcap
Liquidity is piling in at about 92k…. And there isn’t enough bitcoin to service that price
Marketcap buys are inevitable as last case resort
If you want bitcoin, as we saw Metaplanet do a couple months back, they had to buy 5k above spot, which then we moved up to 126k shortly after
Just remember your buys don’t effect price directly if not on order book
Your buys affect the price VIOLENTLY…. Your job is: make Bitcoin scarce
Make it hard to buy
You’re against the finest investors on the planet now wanting what you have at a poultry 92 k
The world is going on chain right now
Marketcap buys become the only option
I have no idea who still 100 x longs and shorts, but holy fukkwow the gambling community have tonnes of free cash…. And they’ve been losing all year, it’s endless the amounts of 100 x they can do…. This is whales only way to manipulate
Soon there isn’t enough bitcoin to bet on….. now that’s a fun one… that has to be a multiplier
