  • The two biggest long addresses we had been tracking closed out completely; one large short cut 97% of its bitcoin position, and its account shrank from $38.2M to $13.3M.
  • After that exit, two addresses of one house hold 69% of the whole short side. By our analysis yesterday, that pair opens spot and perp in the same second — so it carries a carry trade, not a position on a fall.
  • The funds bought for a fifth day running: $347M went into the BTC ETFs on Wednesday. The week of 17–23.09 closed at +$2.65B — the 98th percentile of everything we have measured since February.

  • The quietest day in half a year but one: BTC covered a band 0.57% wide in 24 hours — the only narrower day was 16.08, also a Sunday.
  • The run of flips is over: the short-over-long tilt of the top Hyperliquid whales in BTC stands at 2.6 times, the same as yesterday — both sides added only a little.
  • The lenses parted: the perps turned neutral on a day with no movement, the Deribit options market in BTC still leans toward a fall, and in ETH both are neutral.
  • The options market gets greedier from stillness: our fear-and-greed index rose to 89 out of 100, and BTC two-day vol lifted off the floor — the 17th percentile against the 3rd yesterday.

  • Yesterday's dip-buy by the whales was unwound within a day: the top Hyperliquid whales' BTC long slimmed by a quarter, the short grew, and the short-over-long tilt is back at 2.6 times against 2.0 yesterday — the third flip in three days.
  • Both lenses agree again, but now the other way: the perps and the Deribit options book lean toward a fall in both assets, where yesterday both leaned toward a rise.
  • Two-day insurance is the cheapest since February: BTC two-day vol sits at the 3rd percentile of its own hourly history against the 45th yesterday — the market isn't paying for fear in either direction.
  • The funds split by asset: the week to 11.09 in the BTC funds is negative for the first time this month, while $216M went into the ETH funds on Friday — the biggest daily inflow of the month.

  • The whales on Hyperliquid perps bought the dip: the top whales' BTC long grew by more than $100M over the day, and the short-over-long tilt compressed to 2.0 times against 3.3 yesterday; in ETH the short was cut over the day as well.
  • For the first time in a week both lenses look the same way in both assets: the perps and the Deribit options book lean toward a rise. That's a rare conviction of positioning, not a price forecast.
  • Across the table: the spot ETF funds sold $283M of BTC on Thursday — the biggest daily outflow of the month and the third day of selling running.
  • The options book returned a skew figure for the first time in four days: BTC puts are dearer than calls (+1.3) — protection against a fall is being paid for again, even as two-day insurance got cheaper over the day, from the 65th percentile to the 45th.

  • Yesterday's thesis of the BTC whales turning long didn't survive the night: over the evening the top Hyperliquid whales built almost $130M of longs and had unwound them by morning — the short tilt is 3.3 times against 3.0 yesterday, and the weekly window shows a shift toward short again.
  • The BTC call wall left $81,000 together with the weekly expiry: the nearest ceiling is now a thin wall at $80,500, while the Deribit book holds the accumulated $81,000 calls under the next two expiries.
  • The spot ETF funds sold for a second day, and harder: $120M left the BTC funds on Wednesday against $47M on Tuesday.
  • Insurance is getting pricier for a third day: BTC two-day vol sits at the 65th percentile of its own hourly history since February against the 50th yesterday — already pricier than usual.

  • The Hyperliquid perp whales in BTC shifted their net $101M toward long over the week — the biggest weekly shift in a month, though the tilt still runs 3.0 times in favour of the short; in ETH the short keeps building and accelerating.
  • The Deribit options book has quietly stacked almost 15,000 calls at $81,000 — that's the call wall itself, and over the day it thickened by another 2,500 contracts.
  • The spot ETF funds sold on Tuesday: $47M left the BTC funds in a day, though the week to 08.09 stays positive, only slightly slimmer than the week before.
  • BTC funding flipped back over the day: longs pay shorts again, the leveraged crowd is greedy again — and the gap between the crowd and the whales set a new monthly maximum.
