James Wynn liquidated 22 times on SP500 with $73.1K realized losses, still holds $530.9K short at 50x leverage and -$22.07M lifetime PnL.

Glassnode data shows $1.3B daily realized losses at $62k BTC, long-term holders driving $770M or 59% of total as cycle-top buyers exit.

According to Michaël van de Poppe (@CryptoMichNL), Bitcoin (BTC) holders are experiencing one of the largest realized loss events in the cryptocurrency's history. The recent correction has led to significant capitulation, with many investors selling or moving their BTC at a loss. This spike in realized losses is comparable to major downturns like the 2018 bear market crash, the March 2020 COVID crash, and the 2022 Luna/FTX collapses. Historically, such events often signal market bottoms as weak hands and overleveraged positions are flushed out. Despite this, Bitcoin is currently only down 50% from its all-time high, suggesting the bottom may be near.

According to @glassnode, XRP’s current market structure mirrors February 2022, with 1W–1M active investors accumulating below the 6M–12M cohort’s cost basis, which @glassnode states is building psychological pressure on prior top buyers. According to @glassnode, the $2.0 level remains a major psychological zone for XRP holders, and each retest since early 2025 has coincided with $0.5B–$1.2B in weekly realized losses, underscoring how this price level influences spending behavior. According to @glassnode, these on-chain dynamics make $2.0 a crucial decision area for XRP market participation and risk management, with spending patterns shifting near that level.

According to @AltcoinDaily, peak pessimism often hides the best trade setups and staying curious with daily research helps find them early, even if you are on the sidelines.

According to @glassnode, Bitcoin’s latest drawdown triggered the largest surge in on-chain realized losses since the late-2022 FTX collapse, signaling an outsized loss-taking event across the market. According to @glassnode, short-term holders STHs generated the bulk of realized losses while long-term holder LTH losses remained comparatively contained, indicating selling pressure and stress are concentrated among recent buyers rather than LTH supply.

According to @glassnode, realized losses among new investors in major altcoins are rising as prices struggle to recover, signaling mounting stress in the speculative segment of the crypto market; source: Glassnode. This stress signal reflects deteriorating risk conditions in altcoins based on on-chain losses and weak price recoveries, which is material for short-term trade management and liquidity monitoring in the altcoin market; source: Glassnode.

According to @glassnode, the $2.00 level is a major psychological zone for XRP, with each retest since early 2025 triggering $0.5B–$1.2B in weekly realized losses for investors, signaling concentrated sell pressure near this resistance.
