Bitcoin traders blamed Saylor’s 32 BTC sale but larger selling pressure built elsewhere
Strategy’s tiny sale was not big enough to explain Bitcoin’s correction by itself, but it raised a bigger fear of whether corporate Bitcoin treasuries are still permanent holders.

Good to see you this Saturday.
Crypto’s next phase is being shaped less by ideology than by who can still build, distribute, and absorb risk. That pressure is now showing up at every layer: Cardano’s founder is openly weighing a chain split to restart commercialization, while Bitcoin’s slide on a hawkish jobs surprise exposed how quickly macro still overrides conviction.
The supporting signals point the same way. Traders fixated on Strategy’s small BTC sale, but the bigger issue was whether corporate treasuries remain reliable long-term holders.
The global crypto market cap is $2.1 trillion, with a 24-hour volume of $132.1 billion. The price of Bitcoin is $60,898.15, and BTC market dominance is 58.2%. The price of Ethereum is $1,562.48, and ETH market dominance is 9.0%. The best-performing sector is Travel, which gained 4%. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index is currently Extreme Fear (12).
