Crypto KOL Ansem has published a post stating he remains firm in his earlier view that stock indices and the storage sector have peaked at their current levels in the short term. The third quarter kicks off next week, and the market may see volatility at the start of Q3. He notes that the crypto market, particularly BTC and SOL, has already priced in many weakening factors in advance, so he expects a potential bullish divergence in price action. However, he would not be surprised if a weak stock market at the start of Q3 triggers a selloff in the crypto sector as well. Ansem added that HYPE is likely to continue performing well, though it could also pull back along with the broader market. He warned that the worst-case scenario is getting liquidated before the bear market bottom and before all assets rebound together, so caution is needed when using leverage for long positions. For spot trading, he believes current levels are near lows, making overtrading unwise, while Q3 will be a suitable phase to add positions.

According to Coinglass data, if Bitcoin breaks through $62,000, cumulative short liquidation intensity on major centralized exchanges (CEXs) will hit $915 million. Conversely, if Bitcoin drops below $59,000, cumulative long liquidation intensity on major CEXs will reach $697 million. BlockBeats Note: The liquidation chart does not show the exact number of pending liquidation contracts or the precise value of liquidated contracts. The bars on the chart instead represent the relative importance of each liquidation cluster compared to adjacent clusters—i.e., their intensity. As such, the chart illustrates how severely a given price level for the underlying asset will be impacted. A higher "liquidation bar" signals that once the price hits that level, it will trigger a more pronounced reaction driven by liquidity waves.
