I mean, look, I have no idea.

ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
So I want to preface with like, look, I'm not a public markets guy.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
So I'm speaking a little bit out of my depth.

ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
But I sort of think a little bit of looking at the ETFs is kind of like looking for a signal where like the signal is actually backwards looking, not forwards looking.

But almost by definition, if Bitcoin went down, it's because more people sold.

And so then people look at the ETFs and say, oh my God, the ETFs are sold.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
People are moving out of the ETFs.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
It's like, okay, well, yeah, well, yeah, they sold.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
We know that.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
We already know people sold.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
So looking at the ETFs and say, well, here, this explains the selling.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
No, this memorializes the selling.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
This is a record of the selling.

Asking why did they sell
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
Like, this chart cannot answer that for you.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
So, like, I think the answer largely is that they sold because the price wasn't going up.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
Because everyone else sold, too.
Bankless
ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
Yeah, I mean, I don't have some brilliant explanation.

ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
Like, there is a story about, oh, well, you know, the AI trade is soaking up everything.

ROLLUP: Bitcoinâs Confidence Game | Bitmineâs ETH Bet | Token Rotation | U.S. Perps
But that's been true for a while, right?
