Crypto investors aren't alone; when the crypto market crashes, even traditional financial funds end up going bankrupt. Rumors are circulating today that one or more hedge funds – possibly from Hong Kong – have been "sent to the island" a bit too far away following the sharp market decline over the past two days. Specifically, options on BlackRock's Bitcoin spot ETF (IBIT) recorded a record Volume of 2.33 million contracts on the day of the crash. The estimated total Volume of these contracts is around $8–10 billion, equivalent to the total spot trading Volume of IBIT on the same day. To put it simply, the funds bought IBIT (equivalent to BTC), but unexpectedly, IBIT dropped in price too quickly, so the funds Short it to minimize losses. 😂😂😂
