Crypto markets declined sharply late last night before finding some footing this morning. At the time of writing, BTC -1.54% is down 3.11%, and ETH -0.08% is down 4.93%. It's thought that this sell-off was triggered by a spot sale of 19.9k BTC (~$600M) on Binance over a span of 45 minutes. This is an unusually large sale to happen in such a short period of time. Altcoins have seen more significant...

ANOTHER RINSE Last week, we talked about the futures market getting ahead of its skis, trading with increased leverage despite a continued lack of follow-through in spot market demand.

Thus, bulls received another blow on Thursday evening...
