Ah, the sweet smell of financial uncertainty! Justin Spittler, the grand wizard (or is it just chief trader?) at RiskHedge, has decreed that Bitcoin, the digital messiah of our age, has yet to hit rock bottom. Oh joy! 🎉 Or should we say, “Oh no!”?
This Friday, like a moody teenager, Bitcoin slumped to an intraday low of $114,518 before deciding it wasn’t quite done sulking. It rallied slightly but remains stubbornly close to its lows at $115,692. Ah, the resilience of youth—or perhaps just algorithmic trading.
This dramatic dip comes less than two weeks after Bitcoin reached its all-time high of $123,236 on July 14. Truly, nothing screams “stability” like a 7% drop in under a fortnight. 📉
Spittler, ever the optimist with a dash of sadism, warns Bitcoin bulls to brace themselves for “a bit more pain.” He suggests that retesting the $113,000 level might be on the cards—and possibly overshooting it. Because why stop at one disaster when you can overshoot into another? 😅
No Deep Retracement—For Now
But wait! There’s a silver lining—or at least something shiny enough to distract us from imminent doom. Spittler insists that a “deep retracement” isn’t likely anytime soon. After all, Bitcoin only recently broke out like a rebellious teen escaping curfew. 🕺
And let’s not forget the plucky altcoins! During this latest bout of market turmoil, they’ve shown surprising strength. Chris Burniske, a partner at Placeholder and apparently the voice of reason in this circus, points out that there’s still some risk appetite left. Altcoins are thriving, and ETH/BTC even climbed by nearly 1% today. Ethereum surpassed $3,700 earlier—it’s practically throwing a victory parade while Bitcoin sulks in the corner. 🎊
Open Interest Hits New Highs
Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s open interest—the total number of outstanding derivatives contracts—has soared to a jaw-dropping $44.5 billion. A new record! Surely, this means calm waters ahead… or perhaps just bigger waves. Historically, such spikes tend to precede periods of high volatility. So buckle up; it’s going to be a bumpy ride. 🎢
Bitcoin’s Price Drops, Open Interest Hits New Highs

In conclusion, dear reader, whether you’re here for the thrill or the potential riches, remember: Bitcoin is like a rollercoaster designed by a madman. Enjoy the chaos, and may your trades be as lucky as finding a parking spot in downtown Moscow during rush hour. 🚗💨
