The recent WuBlockchain Space program analyzed allegations that Jane Street manipulates Bitcoin prices through ETFs and derivatives markets. According to guests, the hypothesis that “Jane Street harvests crypto” is largely conspiracy theory, as the sell-offs are actually normal market-making, risk hedging, and ETF arbitrage activities.
The “sell at 10 a.m.” phenomenon is also believed to coincide with high liquidity periods and the market environment after the “11/10” event, rather than a deliberate manipulation strategy. Overall, recent cryptocurrency price fluctuations are mainly influenced by market structure, capital flows, liquidity, and macroeconomic factors, rather than FUD stories. The speakers advised investors to be cautious of speculative explanations.
