Sell pressure leads to Bitcoin breaking its local uptrend, building since Oct. 23.
Support was found at $19,300, but downside fears are stoked as the feud between Changpeng Zhao (CZ) and Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) continues.
Pe 6 noiembrie CZ a tweeted aproximativ recent revelations coming to light, leading to the decision to sell FTT tokens held by Binance.
The incident sparked rumors of FTX insolvency and a Terra-Luna-styled collapse on the cards. Over the last 24 hours, FTX’s native FTT token has sunk by 23.5% to $17.30 at the time of press.
Market jitters following the feud have seen $89 billion of capital outflow from the total crypto market cap since Sunday.
The majority of capital outflow came late Monday evening (ET), as it became clear that CZ had opened a can of worms, including revelations about the relationship between FTX and its trading arm Alameda.
Bitcoin Risk Signal flashes red
Over the last 24 hours, token prices across the board have sunk. The top 100 exceptions are Chainlink and Toncoin.
Amid the sell-off, market leader Bitcoin is down 5.2% to $19,700. It was reported 20,000 BTC left FTX, which at one point led to a negative 198 BTC balance on the exchange.
The market upheaval has triggered warning signs, with the Bitcoin Risk Signal indicator sinking to a low of two. Since the November 2021 top, the Risk Signal has only hit two on three other occasions – each time a major drawdown in price followed.
OKG founder Steaua Xu said the ongoing situation is harming the entire crypto industry and called on CZ to strike “a new deal” with SBF.
Dacă, din păcate, FTX devine o altă LUNA, nimeni din industrie nu poate beneficia de accident, inclusiv Binance. Atât clienții, cât și autoritățile de reglementare își vor pierde încrederea în întreaga industrie. Sper că CZ se poate gândi să nu mai vândă FTT și să încheie o nouă înțelegere cu SBF.

FTX și Alameda
In 2019, on allegations of trading against users, and the conflict of interest arising from market making, investing, and trading, SBF said Alameda operates as a liquidity provider on FTX only and is treated much the same as other LPs.
Alameda este un furnizor de lichidități pe FTX, dar contul lor este la fel ca al tuturor. Stimulentul Alameda este doar ca FTX să se descurce cât mai bine posibil; de departe, factorul dominant ajută la ca experiența de tranzacționare să fie cât mai bună posibil.

In October 2021, SBF stepped down as Alameda’s CEO and was replaced by co-CEOs Caroline Ellison și Sam Trabucco. Trabucco demisionat from his position in August, citing a decision to “prioritize other things,” leaving Ellison as sole CEO.
For all intents and purposes, Alameda and FTX are separate companies. But as the drama was unfolding, it emerged that around 40% of Alameda’s assets are composed of FTT, or FTT collateral, tokens.
Dylan LeClair noted that the FTX “bank run” is being supported by Alameda sending stablecoins, suggesting a closer relationship “than was led on.”
Of all of the things that give me cause for concern, #1 is that as FTX is getting drained of reserves from withdrawals, Alameda is sending stables from its trading wallets to the FTX hot wallet.
Coincidence, or are the lines blurred between the two entities more than was led on? pic.twitter.com/LtWj8hJ0U2

Should further drawdowns ensue, Alameda faces further liquidity pressure, which as an investitor in numerous crypto projects presents a contagion risk.
