26 weeks later, swim season is done! Everyone gets a break for 3 weeks before running the playbook all over again.
Only 66 girls in her age bracket qualified and swam at least one event in the state championships. Alex locked up 9 state medals in 11 events. She came into it just hoping for 1 in individual events and walked away with 5.
She also got a Zone time and missed zone in 4 events by a fraction. This summer will be a fun one!

Bottom formation
✔ BTC stops crashing on bad news ✔ Bad ETF flow days no longer dump price ✔ Bounces get bought ✔ Volatility drops ✔ Twitter turns “dead”
Not when fear is loud — it’s when nobody cares.
Base case: • Forced selling ends: Late Feb 2026 • Bottoming range: 2–4 weeks • Uptrend resumes: March–April 2026
Price zone: $52k–$58k (High-volume support + cost basis + option strikes)
Bottom likely in when: ☐ ETFs flat ≥5 days ☐ Funding ≤0 ☐ Volatility falling ☐ Exchange balances down ☐ DXY/yields stall
If 4+ boxes checked → start scaling in.
Why BTC ETF holders are selling:
Most spot BTC ETF holders are not retail HODLers. They are:
• Hedge funds • Multi-asset allocators • Risk-parity / macro funds • Pension/wealth platforms • CTA / trend funds
They treat BTC like a liquidity + volatility asset, not a belief asset.
When macro and portfolio conditions change, they reduce exposure mechanically.
Main drivers right now:
- Risk-Off + Portfolio Rebalancing
Rising real yields + tighter financial conditions → funds rotate back into: • Treasuries • Money markets • Large-cap equities
BTC is one of the first assets trimmed in risk-off regimes.
So ETF shares get sold as part of routine rebalancing.
⸻
- Basis Trade Unwinds
Many funds bought ETFs while shorting futures (cash-and-carry arbitrage).
When: • Funding rates fall • Futures basis compresses • Volatility spikes
→ Trade becomes unprofitable → they exit.
Exit = sell ETF + cover futures → forces redemptions.
This alone can drive billions in outflows.
⸻
- Performance & Drawdown Rules
Institutions have hard rules:
• Max drawdown limits • VaR constraints • Stop-loss models
Once BTC breaks key levels, models force selling.
No discretion. Just liquidation.
⸻
- Liquidity Needs Elsewhere
Japan carry unwind + global margin stress = funds need USD liquidity.
Easiest thing to sell: ✔ Highly liquid ETFs ✔ Tight spreads ✔ No custody friction
So BTC ETFs become “ATM machines” for cash.
⸻
- Tax & Profit-Taking Cycles
After the 2024–25 run:
• Many funds locked gains • Rebalanced for year-end / new mandates • Harvested losses/gains
That created rolling sell pressure.
⸻
- Narrative Shift: From “ETF Boom” to “Macro Asset”
In 2024: “Structural adoption trade” In 2026: “High-beta macro asset”
Once BTC is framed as a risk asset, flows follow macro — not ideology.
⸻
ETF holders are selling because:
They are being forced by models, mandates, margin, and macro — not fear.
It’s institutional plumbing, not panic.
Which is why:
• Selling is clustered • Volume spikes • Dumps happen fast • Then suddenly stop
That’s how forced flow cycles end.
⸻
TLDR:
ETFs are selling → because funds need cash Funds need cash → because leverage + rates + volatility So BTC becomes collateral
A balance-sheet reset.
I’ll be organizing an Sats Market in Minneapolis.
La Doña said we can host a “Sats Market” at their place any time we want. They have a space towards the back where they typically host events, local market, etc. I’ve seen hosted danced classes and goods market on Saturdays around noon.
I’d be happy to help make this happen if any others are interested in selling goods and/or services.
Let me know if there’s any interest and perhaps we can get something going in February or March.
….business owners, tradespeople, cottage food providers, non-profits, etc. Let’s do it!

Just “won” a silent auction for a Magic Johnson autograph jersey. It’ll be the second signed Magic jersey in my possession. A few years ago, my brother gave me an autographed Magic Johnson Team USA jersey.
Most people don’t remember the origin of why players have to exit a game when there’s an open wound. This started after Magic Johnson stated he had HIV. I was a kid. He was my hero. Taught me how to play basketball by watching his VHS tape. I cried.
Players were in uproar. They didn’t want to play against him. He was forced to retire. But after a few months, the fans voted Magic Johnson into the All-Star game. They let him play, he had 25pts, 9 boards and 5 assists…and a memorable 3 pointer to seal the game. He walked away as MVP.
The league instituted the blood rule the following season.
Sports transcended culture during this time. Opened up the conversation about HIV and AIDS amongst those who were aware.
