Summary
Another HUGE Week for Bitcoiners, with TONS of news from all over the world.π¨ Jane Street just got hit with a lawsuit β and the moment it dropped, Bitcoin's mysterious daily 10AM dump VANISHED. The price ripped 10%, adding $120 billion to market cap. Coincidence? We break down the allegations, the ETF manipulation mechanics, and what this means for price discovery going forward.π£ The US and Israel launched strikes on Iran this weekend β Khamenei is dead, oil is spiking, and Bitcoin barely flinched. Dropped to $63K on Saturday, bounced to $68K by Sunday. We unpack why BTC is acting as a 24/7 macro pressure valve and what Monday's open means for the trade.π Polymarket bettors wagered over $500 million on the Iran conflict within 24 hours β including a $45M contract on Khamenei's removal that resolved to 100%. We look at what prediction markets are telling us about the timeline for de-escalation and regime change.π¦ Jane Street's role as an Authorized Participant in IBIT gave them a regulatory "grey window" β exemptions from normal short-selling rules that critics say allowed systematic price suppression. The firm was already banned from Indian markets by SEBI for a similar "morning pump, afternoon dump" scheme. Now the TerraForm Labs lawsuit alleges insider trading that helped trigger the $40B Luna collapse in 2022.β‘ Bitcoin is trading around $67K as we record. Fear & Greed Index sits at 14 β Extreme Fear. $3.8 billion in ETF outflows in February. $327M liquidated in 24 hours. Is this capitulation, or the buying opportunity of the cycle?π¨π¦ Plus: Canadian stories, macro outlook, and more.π Subscribe and hit the bell so you never miss an episode.π§ Websiter: https://canadianbitcoiners.com π¦ Twitter: / canadianbtcpod #bitcoin #janestreet #iranwar #btc #bitcoinprice #manipβ¦
