TSLA slips as Tesla Optimus autonomy questioned: Bloomberg report and viral X video spark tele-op concerns
According to @garyblack00, a Bloomberg story this morning was pushing TSLA lower, adding pressure to the stock. According to @garyblack00 referencing a video from Tesla’s Miami autonomy-visualized event, an Optimus unit mimicked removing a non-existent headset and then fell to the ground as if powered down, raising questions about tele-operation versus AI-driven autonomy (source: @garyblack00; video: @cixliv on X). According to @garyblack00, @cixliv asserted the clip shows tele-operation, and @garyblack00 noted that if Optimus is tele-operated it would not be scalable because it would require a human tele-operator per robot (source: @garyblack00; @cixliv on X). According to @garyblack00, Elon Musk previously claimed Optimus movements were AI-driven and said the robot could represent 80% of Tesla’s future value, amplifying valuation sensitivity to autonomy doubts (source: @garyblack00). According to @garyblack00’s post, no crypto assets or token-market impacts were mentioned. (Source) More from Gary Black 12-08-2025 11:10 |

BTC, ETH Perp OI Down 40-50% From October Highs: Thin Liquidity Means Small Flows Move Markets, QCP Warns
According to @QCPgroup, BTC and ETH perpetual futures open interest is down 40-50% from October highs and retail interest has fallen back to bear-market levels (source: @QCPgroup). With participation thinning, even small flows are moving prices disproportionately in the majors, signaling thinner liquidity and elevated price-impact risk (source: @QCPgroup). This regime increases the likelihood of sharp wicks and stop-runs in BTC and ETH as modest orders can push markets more than usual (source: @QCPgroup). Traders should factor in slippage and whipsaw risk in execution until open interest and retail participation recover (source: @QCPgroup). (Source) More from QCP 12-08-2025 10:39 |
