Whale vs Retail Delta on $BTC just hit a 61-day low at −0.68 — down for six straight sessions from −0.17 on August 8. That's the widest gap we've seen in two months.
What it means: whales are cutting long exposure while retail keeps holding. Institutional players are de-risking, retail is still positioned for up.
In the last 24 hours, 90.4% of the $77.6M in liquidations were longs. The next big cluster is at $61,432 — 3.26% below spot — with $305M in exposure sitting there.
This is textbook divergence. When the smart money trims and the crowd stays long, you're usually close to a flush or a chop zone. Watch that $61k level — if it breaks, the cascade could be sharp.
