Whales Buying The Dip Amid Binance Crackdown By SEC; Analyst Predicts Bitcoin ATH in 2023

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) lawsuit against the world’s largest crypto exchange Binance and CEO Changpeng “CZ” Zhao fails to bring massive liquidations or outflow as expected. Bitcoin price is merely down to $25800 from $26800, while Ethereum price maintains above $1800.

The SEC didn’t just bring pullback in the crypto market, but it impacted stock markets too as crypto and bitcoin mining stocks, Coinbase, MicroStrategy, Robinhood Markets, as well as banking stocks were down.

Whales Buying the Dip for Bitcoin All-Time High

The crypto fell sharply after the U.S. SEC sues Binance, with BTC and ETH falling 5%. However, options implied volatility (IV) didn’t increase significantly and even fell. Whales have been using billions of dollars of options positions to short both price and volatility in recent weeks.

Whales are using buying the dip returns strategy, same as in the bull market earlier in the year and in the bank credit turmoil.

Popular analyst Credible Crypto said the SEC’s Binance suit helped bring BTC price to hit the first target. He predicts Bitcoin price can only fall during forced liquidations, but if Bitcoin reclaims $27.5k we are continuing on the path to new all-time highs.

Bitcoin to witness a squeeze up and a bullish reversal. However, more downside will be a bonus for buying the dip. He has started buying spot BTC as hit his target lows at $25.8k. The downside is capped at $20k and Bitcoin is not going lower than that. Whales will look to buy at $25k, with some already starting to buy as the price didn’t hit sub $25k.
