My prediction. Michael Sellor will cause the bottom of this bear market 2026!

It appears that the whales might be preparing for another dump. We cannot be certain what will be the most lowest bottom for this bear market, however, I predict this will be caused by Michael Sellor's next dump which might be billions of dollars worth of bitcoin!



Bitcoin traders are scrambling to position for a deeper selloff, snapping up put options that would deliver big payouts if prices slide all the way down to $52,000 in the coming weeks.

In the past 24 to 48 hours, crypto exchange Deribit saw heavy buying of short- and near-dated put options, spanning expirations from June 22 to July 31, according to data tracked by Laevitas. Notable flows included:

June 22 $61,500 puts (337 contracts)
July 3 $60,000 puts (116 contracts) and $55,000 puts (380 contracts)
July 10 $55,000 puts (540 contracts)
July 31 $52,000 puts (314 contracts)

A put option is likely an insurance against market swoons. A put buyer locks in the right to sell bitcoin at a specific strike price in the future. If the price drops below that strike price, the buyer can still sell at the predetermined higher price, thus pocketing the difference as profit. On Deribit, one options contract represents on BTC.

The surge in these out-of-the-money puts reflects a distinctly bearish sentiment and understandably so, as several catalysts are weighing on the market.

I was surprised by the number of puts that were below $60,000.

This clearly means the time we broke earlier, below $60,000, is already alarming, causing many bears to expect to dump more.
Earlier, I was really confident $60,000 is the real deal here as we all know, $60,000 level became significant support and resistance for Bitcoin since before.

You mentioned Strategy, let us hope Free Market Capitalist will not come after this thread, but it was a good thread for me even if Michael Saylor will not cause any dump or further dip or if the dip happened just on its own as it can happen.

I do not know much about options. It has been one of the trading areas that I have not gone for before. But if said bitcoin can dump to $52000, I have a post about the possibility that it can bottom at $53000 which was not directly from me but from another analyst. So I think the dip price that you talked about is still very possible.

Although, I posted the bottom may be $59000, but that was breached in the last bear market when bitcoin dipped below it a little.

About Michael Saylor to cause the bottom, I do not know, but I also do not think so.

This shouldn't be new to us because we are already in the bear market, we are expected to see the market fall at any time as well as rise when the trend experience a slight change, this is why if we observe the market closely of recent, we are going to discover much of falling and little rising within the market, because the season tells much about the direction of the market at a particular time, be there for we must be more observant this season to see that we speculate well, so as not to miss out.

I can't disagree with it. The sentiment has been going so negative after some blunders being made by Saylor. I remember a tweet by coindesk mentioned how Saylor admit he used AI to design his STRC like what?

The strategy tweet is also opening the possibility for him to sell his bitcoin to increase the cash reserve in order to fulfill his obligation to pay the dividend.

He can't forever dumping his MSTR to raise the cash. He may sometimes dump his bitcoin. So it raises question from so many parties regarding his business mechanism.

I was also the one who bought STRC at $100 and it's now dumping to $88, and reached $85 as its new low last days. So i decide to cutloss all of my STRC.

I admit he might be the one who drive us to the moon, but he's also the one who can drive us back to the ground.
