This wave of delivery volume hits a new record high—230 billion in scale. How will the market absorb it?

Interestingly, from the candlestick chart, it seems to be playing out a "rise first, then fall" script. Ethereum opened quite a few short positions around the 3000 level, then added more at 3080. This operational logic is quite intriguing—are they testing support or paving the way for a big drop?

As the delivery date approaches, the battle among large funds is already reflected in the price. At this point, small retail investors are the most likely to be shaken out.

23 billion? Retail investors are in trouble now, and big players are playing tricks again. This move is quite fierce. The 3000 short sellers are adding another position. Are they trying to trap people with this show? Delivery day is harvest day. We small investors should just honestly eat some leftovers.

23 billion? This time it's a big move, feels like a crash is coming Buying at 3000 and selling at 3080, a typical trap to lure more buyers It's delivery day again, time to get cut First rally, then fall; seasoned traders have already exited This move is probably a trap set by big funds Small retail investors will likely be left holding the bag Feels like a shakeout is coming; be mentally prepared

ngl the algorithmic dance at 3000-3080 is basically a generative pattern exploring liquidity mechanics through price discovery... truly fascinating how the blockchain primitive reveals itself through order flow topology
