🔴 This isn't just another crash. It feels like the liquidation candle we saw in December 2021, right before the #Bitcoin $BTC #BearMarket started. (c) Ali
I hope that's not the case and we'll still see an #ATH
It's time to remember that $BTC has experienced much more serious corrections — yesterday's 17% drop looks insignificant compared to them. The main problem for millions turned out to be not the price decline itself, but excessive leverage. We have already heard tragic stories about some traders — please take care of yourselves.
📎 In 2025, the decentralized derivatives sector became the main driver of the DeFi market. In September alone, the total monthly trading volume on perp-DEX exceeded $1 trillion. For comparison: over the entire previous year, the top 10 platforms processed orders worth $1.5 trillion.
However, behind these figures lie not only technological breakthroughs, but also old marketing tricks — incentives in the form of airdrop farming and sometimes dubious statistics.
While the market is falling, one old Bitcoin OG finds himself in a favorable position
His shorts of more than $1.1 billion in $BTC and $ETH are now generating unrealized profits of over $27 million.
He entered the position at just the right time — it feels like he knew a correction was coming. Coincidence or insider information — you decide, but his timing is just perfect.
🐋 Vitalik #Buterin appears to be disposing of $STRK
He transferred $1 million in STRK tokens to a new wallet and immediately began selling the asset. According to on-chain analytics, this address is likely associated with the Methuselah Foundation.
Vitalik now has no $STRK remaining in public addresses.
I think that the chart is already clear. Since the end of 2024, corporations have been buying bitcoin in record volumes. Much more than miners produce.
This leads to a shortage on the market and a run-up in the exchange rate. With demand for BTC not yet dwindling and countries printing more and more new money - it doesn't look like a bear market looms on the near horizon....
2017 - the #ICO era 2021 is the explosion of #L1 and #NFT . and 2025 is the DEX perp cycle,
The same $HYPE has already made many traders millionaires, and it looks like this is just the beginning. Perpetual DEX's are the new standard for decentralized liquidity and freedom to trade without intermediaries.
There are dozens of strong players emerging on the scene now, and it is possible that the next Hyperliquid will be among them.
Who do you think will be the next leader among the DEX perps? Write your suggestions in the comments. $ASTER $APEX
