🚨 THIS $BTC DUMP WAS ENGINEERED
Down 16% from $87,396.
Retail thinks the CPI print did that. The CPI print didn't do that.
Leverage was the building.
Liquidations jumped 288% to $725 million in a single day, and stablecoin supply has shrunk $14.2 billion in 30 days, the biggest monthly drop since June 2022.
Every desk on the street knew exactly where those positions sat.
All they needed was a headline ugly enough to justify the flush.
They got one, and it was perfect: a hot CPI, a Fed governor floating a 50 basis point hike, and a 10-year yield back above 5%.
Three stories that sound permanent and nothing a retail trader can price.
So the stops came out.
Price swept the lows at $72,700 and parked at $73,500.
Now ask the only question that matters.
Who was buying while $279 billion of panic hit the tape?
Wallets holding 100 to 10,000 BTC are buying this dip while the market panics.
Nobody dumps a position this size into the open.
You distribute into strength and you accumulate into fear, and fear is what the last seven weeks manufactured.
Here's the part that doesn't change.
A hot CPI is one print. A rate hike is a repricing, not a verdict. ETF outflows already slowed from $430 million to $95 million in four days.
The 21 million cap still holds.
My zone is $70,000 to $76,000. That's where I'm buying.
PPI lands Friday, November 13, and the Fed decides December 9, so I'm sizing for more pain first.
Target $90,000.
