BTC Flash Crash

Bitcoin whale sold 600 btc on low liquidity exchange, bought up all the sells down to 7.5k

Imagine the nerds that had their buy orders set at 8k lol... instant millionaires.

odds are it was the exchange that did it to get rid of swaps& stops. very few people have 600 btc nowadays. (worth 40 million for those who need help w/ math)

couldve been a fat finger, i doubt it thought. my theory is market maker wanted to swap fees for exchange since they were paying out .06 for longs at the time every 8hrs

"Popular Twitter trader Crypto Chase said "well done Binance U.S." and sarcastically commented that it's a "good thing Americans are forced on to these dogs**t exchanges where they can get completely scammed on unreasonably thin books."

He was referring to the stringent regulation that forced most cryptocurrency exchanges to deploy separate trading platforms for U.S. customers only. Consequently, American crypto traders tend to operate on less liquid cryptocurrency exchanges."

sounds about right, lolol
