Hello, Asia. Here is what is news on the markets:
Welcome to the morning briefing in Asia, a daily summary of the best stories during the hours and an overview of market movements and analyzes. For a detailed overview of the American markets, see the Americas of the Coindesk Crypto Daybook.
Bitcoin is negotiated just below $ 110,000 after another stranded rebound, down approximately 7%, because a peak greater than $ 117,000 following the speech of Powell Dovish Jackson Hole, according to Coindesk market data. Ethereum, who briefly affected $ 4,900 before a net reversal, has more than $ 4,300 but shows signs of exhaustion after weeks of outperformance.
The bull is effiloche, according to market observers, while clarification of liquidity, ETF outputs and the activity of fragile onchain collide with the whales that turn in the ETH and the long details have liquidated. However, under the surface, the sovereign and institutional allowances of a billion dollars are quietly transformed into volatility, creating a strong divergence between a short term conviction and a programmatic purchase of long-horizon.
The latest impetus of the Glassnod market shows the cycle that slides from Euphoria in fragility: the momentum of a spot fading towards the territory of occurrence, the ETF flows swinging towards an exit of $ 1 billion and carried out the profits which are reinstated on a scale.
This fragility was underlined by QCP Capital, which drew the crash of this weekend at an early unloading of 24,000 BTC in fine liquidity, a decision which broke $ 500 million in liquidations. QCP said that the sale expressed how fragile the market has become a dollars of $ 1.2 billion in outings, even if the whales run in ETH, pushing the ETH / BTC crossing at 0.04.
The market manufacturer based in Singapore Enflux takes up this thread, arguing that not all flows are created equal.
While the retail longs have been stunned, an ETH participation of 2.55 billion dollars rolled up a single contract and the exposure to $ 700 million from the United Arab Emirates family in BTC via the extraction of the citadel is less like speculative clearances and more like sovereign and institutional allowances.
In other words, even if the ONCHAIN data from Glassnode show weakening address activity and cost volumes, there are counterparts that deliberately use volatility to evolve in size.
The result is a divergence: the retail lever effect continues to rinse, while the beneficiaries on a long horizon accumulate quietly.
But with the transaction costs collapse towards low decades and compensation blocks with little congestion, liquidity on the Bitcoin blockchain itself seems slim. This is a problem for minors already tight by rewards divided into two, and this leaves the widest of the market for consolidation, or deeper prints in September, historically the lowest month of Bitcoin.
