Liquidity Blues and the Whale Watch

Here we are, in the midst of a crypto slump that's got everyone scratching their heads, mostly because there's been a noticeable absence of whales. Yeah, that's right, those big players usually swooping in to stabilize things seem to be on a coffee break or something. And with liquidity challenges on the horizon, this could be a wild ride.

The crypto market is looking a little worse for wear. Downward trends are creeping in, and the momentum is losing steam. In the past, when whales were active, they would usually step in during corrections, so this time feels different. No whales, no recovery? That's the million-dollar question, right?

Whale Movements: A Double-Edged Sword

Whales have always been the market's safety net, especially during corrections. They operate in two main ways: the Purple Box and the Green Box. Both patterns provide insights into whale behavior and often hint at impending price shifts.

The Purple Box pattern is like a shot in the arm during a crash. Whales step in, absorb all that red, and the Market Buy Ratio skyrockets. This usually brings some bounce.

On the flip side, the Green Box pattern is more of a slow burn, where whales quietly accumulate over time, pushing the MBR up. This often precedes a breakout.

But in the last price correction that took us to $89k? Nope, no Purple Box, and no Green Box. The absence of these patterns definitely raises eyebrows.

The Crypto Startups' Survival Guide

So with all this chaos, what can Asia's fintech startups do? It’s all about diversification. Relying on one source of income is so 2020. It's time to be profitable and show real revenue streams. Investors are more interested in returns than growth these days.

Companies that have managed to navigate the regulated waters are the ones that shine right now. Getting your licenses and playing by the rules helps. Collaboration's key too. Teaming up with banks or other crypto firms can create a smoother ride.

And finally, as the market twists and turns, it's important to keep an eye on the whales and their patterns. They may not have the same clout as before, but they can still influence the trends. And right now? They’re nowhere to be found.
