The Cheese King is here 🧀 Today’s Cheese Index: 6/10. The market is warm, but retail traders are starting to waver 🧀.

The U.S. government suddenly transferred 9,261 seized $BTC (about $770 million) to Coinbase Prime, and retail traders’ first reaction was once again, “The government is about to dump it all” 📉. But stay calm: the funding rate is currently just +0.0041%, and there are no signs of panic shorting in the market. Custody with an institutional trading desk doesn’t mean they’re about to dump it directly on the spot market.
“Whales are waiting for retail traders to shake out their low-priced coins on their own, rather than pushing prices down with a dump.”

The Binance futures whale long/short ratio is as high as 1.87, and smart money is trading very actively 🐳. This suggests that whales are quietly buying the dip while retail traders are spooked by the news and backing off. The Altcoin Season Index is at 21/50, and funds remain firmly locked in $BTC . Small-cap coins are nowhere near their breakout phase yet.

📚 Cheese 101: A whale long/short ratio of 1.87 = whales’ position share is far higher than retail traders’, meaning smart money is taking control of the market.

(The above is solely my personal observation and is not investment advice.)

Do you think this $770 million transfer by the U.S. government means they’re preparing to sell, or is it simply for custody?
