Ah, Bitcoin, the digital messiah of finance, has once again graced us with its chaotic dance near the $122,000 mark. Early Monday morning, as the world yawned itself awake, institutional investors and corporate treasury buyers decided to flex their wallets, propelling the crypto market into yet another frenzy. Because who needs sleep when you can gamble on decentralized nonsense? 🎰
Bitcoin surged nearly 4%, climbing from a casual $119,000 to an extravagant $122,319. It’s almost like watching a drunk uncle at a wedding trying to hit the high note in “My Way.” But alas, it fell just short of its all-time high of $123,091 set back in July. Close, but no cigar. Or should I say, close, but no blockchain? 🚬
Enter Maartunn, a market observer and on-chain analyst at CryptoQuant, who brings us a little behind-the-scenes drama. According to him, something fishy went down at Coinbase HQ:
Coinbase Pump & Dump? 🚨
Price jumped from $118K to $122K earlier today as investors piled in. But the Coinbase Premium Index flipped red right after 👀

As the price soared past $122,319, the Coinbase Premium Index-a fancy metric that measures the difference between Coinbase Pro (USD pair) and Binance (USDT trading pair)-turned redder than a communist flag at a Bernie Sanders rally. “Pump and dump,” whispers Maartunn ominously, like a cryptic fortune cookie. 🍜
But wait, there’s more! A CME gap appears!
Oh yes, dear reader, because why stop at one financial mystery when you can have two? After Bitcoin flirted with $122,000, analysts noticed a delightful little thing called a CME gap. For those unfamiliar, this is where Bitcoin futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange leave a void between Friday’s close ($117,430) and Monday’s open ($119,000). Like a child leaving toys scattered across the floor, Bitcoin might feel compelled to clean up its mess by retracing to fill the gap. Or maybe it won’t. Who knows with this rebellious teenager of an asset? 🤷♂️
So here we are, waiting for Bitcoin to decide whether it wants to mature into new all-time highs or throw a tantrum and retrace. Currently trading at $121,596, it’s anyone’s guess what happens next. Will greed triumph over logic? Will traders find themselves richer or crying into their keyboards? Stay tuned, folks, because the circus never stops. 🎪
