New Theory on Why Bitcoin Fell: Never Been Mentioned Before

Franklin Bi, a partner at Pantera Capital, made a noteworthy assessment regarding the recent sharp sell-off in the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency market.

According to Bi, the large-scale sell-off in the market may not be orchestrated by a trading company directly linked to the crypto sector, but rather by a large, Asia-based external institution.

Franklin Bi suggested that the institution in question did not come under the radar of the crypto community because it traded with a limited number of counterparties in the crypto market. He stated that this situation led to the source of the selling pressure not being clearly identified for a long time.

According to Bi’s scenario, the process began with the institution conducting leveraged trading and market-making activities on Binance. Subsequently, the liquidation of Japanese yen arbitrage positions led to a chain reaction of liquidity shortages. These developments allegedly caused the institution to be dragged into a serious liquidity crisis.

Allegedly, the institution was granted an additional period of approximately 90 days. During this time, it attempted to recover its losses through gold and silver transactions; however, this strategy also failed. As a result, it is claimed that the institution resorted to mandatory position closures this week, which triggered the sharp sell-off observed in the crypto market.

The announcement by America’s Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), which includes CVS Health’s Aetna, Humana, Cigna, Centene and an array of Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans as members, comes ahead of the first meeting of the reconstituted Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, which now has new members chosen by U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vaccine critic. “Health plans are committed to maintaining and ensuring affordable access to vaccines,” AHIP said in a statement Wednesday. “Health plan coverage decisions for immunizations are grounded in each plan’s ongoing, rigorous review of scientific and clinical evidence, and continual evaluation of multiple sources of data.” The move by AHIP is good news for millions of Americans at a time of year when they flock to drugstores, pharmacies, physician’s offices and outpatient clinics to get their seasonal flu and Covid shots. Kennedy’s changes to U.S. vaccine policy have created confusion across the country over whether certain vaccines long covered by insurance would continue to be. AHIP has now provided some clarity for millions of Americans. “Health plans will continue to cover all ACIP-recommended immunizations that were recommended as of September 1, 2025, including updated formulations of the COVID-19 and influenza vaccines, with no cost-sharing…
