🚨 CRYPTO VOLUME IS SURGING — BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN BUYERS ARE WINNING
Yesterday, the market was quiet
Today, activity is exploding while prices are falling
📉 Latest market snapshot
• $BTC — $81.3K | −2.4%
• $ETH — $2,371 | −5.2%
• Crypto market cap — −2.8%
• Trading volume — +51.5%
Here's the mistake I'd avoid
More volume doesn't automatically mean more demand
It could reflect aggressive selling, forced exits, or buyers finally absorbing supply
Volume alone can't distinguish them
👀 What I'm watching instead
BTC's 24H low near $80.2K is the first important test
If BTC holds that area while ETH stops underperforming, I'd start looking for signs of absorption
If BTC breaks lower on continued heavy activity, the recovery thesis gets weaker
⚠️ One more detail
BTC Futures open interest hasn't collapsed over the sampled period
So calling this entire move a liquidation flush would be premature
The edge isn't spotting high volume — it's recognizing whether that volume is actually changing control of the market
I'd rather wait for buyers to prove themselves than mistake activity for strength
