Bitcoin and Ethereum Enter Deep Negative Gamma Zone, Market Maker Hedging May Amplify Volatility

Odaily News: Adam, a macro researcher at Greeks.Live, said that both Bitcoin and Ethereum have entered a deep negative gamma zone. Bitcoin is in negative gamma within the roughly $58,000 to $72,000 range, with no positive gamma buffer below the current price; to maintain their hedges, market makers need to sell when prices fall and buy when prices rise. Such operations may amplify price volatility and turn a small decline into large-scale liquidations in perpetual contracts.

Odaily News: According to Bitcoin News monitoring, well-known trader Harley Lewis Foote said attackers gained full remote access to his computer through a malicious WhatsApp payload. The payload reportedly downloaded automatically without any click.

Analysis: BTC and ETH are in a deep negative gamma region, market makers hedge or exacerbate volatility

According to CoinDesk, data from the options platform Greeks.Live shows that both Bitcoin and Ethereum are currently in the "negative gamma" zone, which means that the routine hedging operations of market makers may amplify price fluctuations. To maintain directional neutrality, market makers typically buy and sell tokens or futures to hedge risks. However, in a negative gamma state, to maintain hedging, they must sell when prices fall and buy when prices rise, thus conforming to and exacerbating market trends.Greeks.Live macro researcher Adam stated that both Bitcoin and Ethereum have entered a deep negative gamma zone. Charts indicate that Bitcoin is in negative gamma within the range of approximately $58,000 to $72,000, and there is a lack of positive gamma buffer below the current price. This hedging behavior could trigger a chain reaction, causing small declines to evolve into large-scale liquidations of perpetual contracts. Adam pointed out that the market may face a fragile order book and momentum-driven price trends before BTC and ETH return to the "gamma flip" level of around $73,000.

Yi Lihua: Justin Sun Bearish on Nasdaq and Bitcoin, Says Selling AI Stocks May Mark Future Peak

Odaily News: Yi Lihua posted that after exiting at the top at $86,000, he had been looking to buy the dip and waited patiently for a long time. However, with the Democrats coming to power and the Jensen Huang incident, the short-term AI ecosystem was completely disrupted. In recent days, we have been repeatedly thinking about one thing: how the next year or even two years will affect US stocks. This has gone beyond the framework of analyzing Bitcoin trading data.

Last night, he discussed with Justin Sun for nearly an hour why Sun is bearish on the Nasdaq and Bitcoin. Justin Sun said that selling AI stocks now might turn out to be the future peak. Over the past few years, AI companies represented by Nvidia, driven by unlimited optimism about the AI trend, have generated leverage and subprime-like exposure far exceeding current AI revenue growth. If a leader like Nvidia or even Musk runs into problems, the entire industry chain will face a round of deleveraging and bubble squeezing, and US stocks will continue to correct significantly. If it gets worse, it could even trigger a financial crisis. Always prepare for the worst-case scenario.

Jensen Huang's Departure Sparks Concerns Among Nvidia China Staff Over Business and Career Prospects; Official Website Updates 'Management Profiles' Page

Odaily News: The impact of Jensen Huang's departure has spread to China. One Nvidia China employee said, "We love Jensen very much, and we hope he comes back," while another Nvidia China employee pessimistically believed that Huang's departure has a very high probability of affecting the China business and said, "I'm already preparing to start looking for a job."

Analysts believe that the concerns of Nvidia China employees are not unfounded. Previously, major US companies such as Google and Microsoft scaled back related businesses due to geopolitical, export control, national security review, and compliance requirements—"there is a precedent." The ultimate result of this cascading effect is that sensitive positions for Chinese professionals have narrowed, the space for China business has shrunk, and the political atmosphere has become more cautious. Therefore, some Chinese employees worry that if the new management further emphasizes geopolitical compliance, Nvidia's China business and the promotion prospects of Chinese employees may repeat a similar "chilling effect."

It is reported that Nvidia's China official website has updated its "Management Profiles" page. Jensen Huang, who was previously placed first among company executives, has been moved to the very bottom of the page. His profile retains his founder status and has been updated to "previously served as NVIDIA's President and Chief Executive Officer, and as a member of the Board of Directors." Currently, the first executive listed is Interim Chief Executive Officer Colette Kress, whose positions also include Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. (Phoenix Tech)
