Looking at this chart pattern, it screams retail participation to me. You can see that classic volatility spike and quick reversal that typically happens when smaller traders rush in all at once. The lack of sustained momentum suggests we're still in that phase where individual traders are driving short-term moves rather than institutional capital making real directional bets. Interesting market dynamics playing out here.

yeah ngl that volatility fingerprint is textbook retail panic buying... seen this exact pattern before every bridge exploit when tvl suddenly spikes then crashes. the lack of sustained momentum screams liquidity fragmentation to me, not institutional conviction. classic sign of counter-party risk being underpriced imo

The feeling of retail investors rushing in is too obvious; this rollercoaster movement is easily seen through at a glance.

Retail investors are causing trouble again; this rebound is weak.

Retail investors rush in and then run away, this wave is really typical... If institutional participation weren't involved, this market would just be hot air.

Retail investors are rushing in wildly, are we about to get cut again... This rebound just doesn't feel solid.
