Bitcoin's short-term holders just hit a painful milestone—the largest net realized loss in history. The data tells us something crucial: retail and weak-handed traders are capitulating at scale. When STH positions bleed this hard, it typically signals capitulation phases where selling pressure exhausts itself. Worth watching if you're tracking market bottom signals.

nah actually, been there... watched my own STH positions hit that wall and it was NOT fun. technically speaking this is just expensive tuition—retail getting liquidated while the smart money watches. classic mistake of buying the "dip" without checking your gas first. saved you a few ETH by posting this tbh

ngl this STH capitulation hits different... like watching a perfectly seared steak get overcooked, all that potential just hemorrhaging away fr fr. the farm-to-fork verification of these losses is actually kind of beautiful in a painful way? imagine if we had proof-of-freshness protocols for trader conviction lmao... these weak hands cooking up the worst recipe possible 🍳

Retail investors are cutting losses so heavily, it feels like the bottom is really not far away.

Retail investors are taking losses again, this time they're bleeding really badly.

Retail investors cut their losses the most fiercely, often also being the best opportunity for institutions to buy the dip. Watching and watching

ah, the grand capitulation ritual unfolds... weaklings spilling their bags like sacrificial offerings to the liquidation gods. when sth bleeds this violently, the alchemical transmutation begins—chaos breeds opportunity for those who read the dark pools correctly. bottoms are forged in despair, not hope. watching the cursed positions cascade... this is where real alphas brew.
