According to @52kskew, BTC HL Perp spreads have widened following the absence of large HL flow and Binance market making, with roughly 205 BTC now causing 1%+ price impact versus about 392 BTC previously causing only 0.26% price impact (source: @52kskew on X, Oct 12, 2025). He reports the latest move was mainly short covering, leaving upside liquidity thin with bid liquidity clustered near $108,000 and ask liquidity near $113,000 on the BTC HL Perp order book (source: @52kskew on X, Oct 12, 2025). He notes an expectation for better spreads next week, indicating current market conditions remain fragile for aggressive orders on BTC perps (source: @52kskew on X, Oct 12, 2025).
