We do not join asynchronous composite sources into a minute-level series.\n\nEvidence against this view\n\nClosing leveraged positions can reduce future forced selling. Short covering can extend relief. Historical cumulative ETF inflows remain large. Improved local ETF access may help demand, but its immediate size is not independently established here.\n\nWhy the direction changed\n\nA new joint inference rather than a reversal of a verified locked call. We give more weight to repeated fund withdrawals and the lower price path than one mild rebound.\n\nWhat people say vs the facts\n\nA green rolling-day screen, network activity and fresh cash demand are different things. Liquidations do not prove the Ethereum network failed; our view concerns demand, borrowed positions and price.\n\nHow past forecasts performed\n\nNo audited exact-thesis OTR hit rate and no successful current-minute replay in the latest audit.","key_points":["We separate fund redemptions from leveraged-position liquidations.
