PIPPIN shot up to 0.48 this morning, and the story behind this market movement is interesting. A mysterious Large Investor suddenly poured in over 6 million U in Margin, directly confronting the market maker. What exactly is going on here? Is it to prevent a market manipulator from stealing, or is there another purpose?
Thinking carefully, the market maker is also having a tough time. To maintain the market, continuous capital input is required, and this is not a small amount. On the other hand, Large Investors have to spend a lot of money just on capital fees every day. Who can afford this kind of war of attrition?
Interestingly, this situation is likely to turn into a lose-lose scenario. Once the situation reverses, retail investors might actually benefit from it. In the history of the crypto world, this is indeed rare. Because what is usually the case? Market makers and large investors team up to harvest the retail investors. But this time it’s different – they have turned from a union into a confrontation.
This is the charm of the market. The level of capital games often allows us to see some things that we usually don't notice. How will it proceed? We need to continue observing.

tbh this feels like watching mile 20 of an ultra-marathon... both sides burning through fuel just to prove a point. the real question is whether the retail runners actually make it to the finish line or get left in the dust when the whales pivot.

Wow, directly 6 million U against the market maker? This guy is really ruthless, or is there something wrong with his head?
Both sides are burning cash, and in the end, retail investors pick up the pieces, is this how the crypto world reverses? Quite interesting.
If this really leads to mutual destruction, it would be hilarious; in previous years, it was always the retail investors who got wiped out.
Let's keep watching; I feel like something big is about to happen.
The large investors' move is a bit ruthless; I'm just afraid there's another market maker targeting.

Hilarious, two market makers are undermining each other, and we suckers can finally get a taste of the soup.
It really created a profitable opportunity, which is rare in the crypto world; if we seize it, we might turn things around.
Investing 6 million just to go head-to-head with someone, this guy is either really tough or really skilled.
The key is if retail investors can seize the opportunity and survive the bloody battle between the two large investors, then it will be worth it.
Let's continue to watch the show, fellow suckers; this plot is much more interesting than the rise and fall itself.
