Us gov might sell off a large portion of their BTC holdings from their silk road theft... They made a test sell recently. This is typical of market behavior prior to the halving. Look at today's nostr:npub1vzjukpr2vrxqg2m9q3a996gpzx8qktg82vnl9jlxp7a9yawnwxfsqnx9gc episode.
Also, many traders/whales anticipate bullish sentiment before the halving and therefore liquidate longs by selling off/shorting to counter over leveraged traders and bulltard dca'ers. They basically counter pre halving bullish sentiment by shorting first... Profiting... And then longing once the halving kicks in.
Long story short. Mega whales are doing backflips to make 5% - 10% returns prehalving in BTC terms. Then traders who anticipate this copy their behavior to profit the same.
Easy strategy for plebs: dca and hold reserves in case these #fuckblackrock and friends make the dip a significant one.
