From BlackRock selling to altcoins collapsing, here are 5 reasons why the crypto crash has already started — and how you can protect your portfolio.From BlackRock selling to altcoins collapsing, here are 5 reasons why the crypto crash has already started — and how you can protect your portfolio.

5 Reasons Why the Crypto Crash Is Already Underway

The signs are all here. $Bitcoin is losing momentum, altcoins are bleeding, and BlackRock along with Wall Street whales are quietly exiting. While retail still believes in “to the moon” narratives, the market is already shifting into the final stage of the cycle. Let’s break down the 5 biggest reasons why the crypto crash is underway.

1. BlackRock and Whales Are Selling

The exit has already started. BlackRock isn’t just buying anymore — they’ve begun daily selling, unloading positions onto retail. This is how every cycle ends: whales don’t announce the top, they simply rotate out slowly while retail keeps buying.

2. Smart Money Has Left the Table

The traders who made life-changing gains have already rotated into stablecoins like $USDT. They’ve secured profits and left the market, leaving retail investors as the exit liquidity. By the time most realize it, the door will already be closed.

3. Classic Cycle Top Indicators Are Flashing

The signals are impossible to ignore:

  • Bitcoin trading volume is dropping
  • Altcoins are failing to follow BTC pumps
  • Funding rates are extremely positive
  • On-chain wallets are moving coins to exchanges

Every one of these indicators points to a market top.

4. The Retail Trap Is Wide Open

Narratives at the peak are louder than ever:

  • “Bitcoin to $500K”
  • “Altcoins 100x next month”
  • “ETF inflows never stop”

This is exit liquidity marketing. Retail is sold the dream exactly when whales are selling their bags.

5. Altcoins Will Get Wiped Out

History repeats itself every cycle:

  • When Bitcoin stalls → alts bleed
  • When Bitcoin dumps → alts collapse

Majors typically lose -50%, while small caps fall -90%. It’s the same brutal script, and it’s already starting to play out.

How to Survive the Crash

Don’t wait for the perfect top. Scale out, sell into strength, and rotate profits into stablecoins like $USDT or $USDC. Hold dry powder for the crash and re-enter when fear dominates, not greed.

Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto

The post Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Advertisement &nbsp &nbsp Forward Industries, the largest publicly traded Solana treasury company, has filed a $4 billion at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program with the U.S. SEC  to raise more capital for additional SOL accumulation. Forward Strategies Doubles Down On Solana Strategy In a Wednesday press release, Forward Industries revealed that the 4 billion ATM equity offering program will allow the company to issue and sell common stock via Cantor Fitzgerald under a sales agreement dated Sept. 16, 2025. Forward said proceeds will go toward “general corporate purposes,” including the pursuit of its Solana balance sheet and purchases of income-generating assets. The sales of the shares are covered by an automatic shelf registration statement filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission that is already effective – meaning the shares will be tradable once they’re sold. An automatic shelf registration allows certain publicly listed companies to raise capital with flexibility swiftly.  Kyle Samani, Forward’s chairman, astutely described the ATM offering as “a flexible and efficient mechanism” to raise and deploy capital for the company’s Solana strategy and bolster its balance sheet.  Advertisement &nbsp Though the maximum amount is listed as $4 billion, the firm indicated that sales may or may not occur depending on existing market conditions. “The ATM Program enhances our ability to continue scaling that position, strengthen our balance sheet, and pursue growth initiatives in alignment with our long-term vision,” Samani said. Forward Industries kicked off its Solana treasury strategy on Sept. 8. The Wednesday S-3 form follows Forward’s $1.65 billion private investment in public equity that closed last week, led by crypto heavyweights like Galaxy Digital, Jump Crypto, and Multicoin Capital. The company started deploying that capital this week, announcing it snatched up 6.8 million SOL for approximately $1.58 billion at an average price of $232…
