Episode notes
Unprecedented Early Seller Exhaustion
- Bitcoin's weekly directional indicator shows unprecedented seller exhaustion only a month after the all-time highs.
- This suggests the recent drop behaved like an accelerated bear-phase, not a prolonged structural bottom.
Momentum Reads Like A Deeper Washout
- Weekly RSI and momentum read like bear-market lows despite price being only ~30% off highs.
- Chris interprets these fast washouts as bullish, implying a mid-cycle correction more than a full bear cycle.
Whales Are Stepping Back In
- On-chain order-size data shows whales returning with large buy orders after retail capitulation earlier.
- This whale re-entry supports the idea sellers are exhausted and buying pressure is increasing.
