Three major drivers behind the end-of-month crash:
Global central banks reciting the 'tightening mantra' again
At the end of May, stubborn PCE inflation data in the U.S., the European Central Bank's tough interest rate hikes, and Japan's sudden market intervention led global funds to urgently seek 'safe havens'. Some institutions withdrew from the highly volatile Bitcoin, turning to the dollar or gold, triggering a chain of sell-offs.
Whales cleaning up positions at the end of the quarter
As the end of the month approaches (especially at the end of Q2), large investment institutions need to adjust their positions to meet risk control requirements. Bitcoin, as a high-volatility asset, is at the forefront, with programmatic sell orders triggering concentrated selling pressure, exacerbating the decline.
The magnetic effect of the psychological barrier of $100,000
Important integer barriers naturally attract a tug-of-war between bulls and bears. When the price approaches $100,000, a large number of stop-loss orders and bottom-buying positions accumulate densely. Once it falls below this level, it triggers technical selling pressure.
Three rules for retail investors to break through - refuse panic, layout wisely:
See through the 'rules of the game': don't get 'swept out the door'
Volatility caused by whale rebalancing ≠ trend reversal. Avoid panic selling at fear-driven lows, especially when the price approaches strong support areas. Historical data shows that the probability of a rebound within 72 hours after a sharp drop exceeds 65%.
The golden rule of position: invest money that allows you to 'sleep soundly'
Always follow the '10% rule': do not invest more than 10% of your liquid assets. Even when facing a 20% fluctuation, it should not affect your life. Remember: living long is more important than earning quickly.
Buy in batches: turn 'crashes' into 'discount seasons'
If you firmly believe in the market outlook, you can adopt the 'pyramid adding position method': set ladder buy orders at key levels like $100,000, $95,000, $90,000, etc. Refuse to make a one-time bet and let market fluctuations become your friend.
Key insight: This decline is essentially a combination of short-term institutional behavior and macro emotions, rather than a fundamental collapse. Real danger signals (such as regulatory black swans or exchange explosions) have not appeared. Smart investors are quietly collecting chips during the decline - blockchain data shows that the outflow of Bitcoin from exchanges has surged by 47% in the past two days, suggesting that savvy funds are quietly positioning themselves.
The truth emerges after the storm. Bitcoin is never short of violent fluctuations, but every deep squat is for a higher leap. The key for retail investors to succeed lies in using rational armor to defend against emotional bullets, firmly holding onto their own helm amid the waves stirred up by institutions.
