Bitcoin ETF Custody Concentrates Power, Raising Systemic Risk
Spot Bitcoin exchange‑traded funds now hold over $54 billion, roughly 1.5 million BTC. The ETF structure places the underlying coins in a trust controlled by a handful of custodians, with Coinbase identified as the dominant custodian, creating a single point of operational failure.

The post reports that Bitcoin slipping below $104,000 triggered a plunge in the Crypto Fear & Greed Index to 27, the lowest level in seven months, signaling extreme market fear. Analysts link the drop to waning institutional demand, a recent Federal Reserve rate‑cut signal that ruled out further easing, and nearly $800 million of net outflows from Bitcoin‑linked ETFs, pushing institutional buying below daily mined supply. The author presents these data points as evidence that broader macro and funding pressures are reigniting anxiety in the crypto market.

I see a lot of people saying “nuke bitcoin to 80k” Lmao that’s not a nuke. Real nuke would be back down to 40k around the price range the ETF got approved. A solid 60-70% from the top is to be expected. But it’s...

Here is a little hopium. BTC bounced from the OCT 17 lows. Potential to see a double bottom form up. Needs volume to pick up and price to start heading up. Pattern only confirms on a breakout above $115,000. 100k...

I disagree. If it is in fact true that Samourai Wallet was logging xpubs, they should go to jail for that crime. It's fraud to claim something had privacy when it did not. Doubly so given the scale of their FUD...

The #Bitcoin dominance is still trending upwards, but on edge to be breaking south. Why? It's mimicking Q4 2019. I'd want to see a break beneath the 20-Monthly MA. If that happens, that's party time. https://t.co/m21WnBhKuj
The point at which you can’t halt the chain is the point when you can no longer reason about the consequences of an extended liveness failure

Clear rejection at $112K for #Bitcoin. That remains to be the crucial level for me. If that breaks = new ATH. Everything beneath $112K is a great buying opportunity. https://t.co/vlUMZuwFOS
我每次买币都被套,100%的记录。 😂 2014年,均价$600买了BTC,一个月内跌倒$200,持续了18个月。 2017年,买了BNB,也跌了20-30%,持续了几周。 这次。。。还说不准呢。 昨天又加了点仓。所以大家要注意风险啊。以后不再披露了。免得影响大家的行情。🤣
