The market is not pricing conviction. It is pricing a squeeze. That distinction matters because squeezes end the moment trapped traders run out of fuel.

Crypto does not reward the loudest thesis. It rewards the trader who understands where liquidity sits, where structure breaks, and when patience becomes an edge.

The cleanest longs rarely appear when sentiment feels safe. They appear when expectations get so bearish that a small miss in the downside narrative forces positioning to unwind fast.
