Michael Burry Admits He "Slept" on 2013 Bitcoin Opportunity Amid 2026 "Death Spiral" WarningMichael Burry, the renowned "Big Short" investor and founder of Scion Asset Management, recently shared on February 22, 2026, that he "slept on" a major Bitcoin buying opportunity in early 2013. In a post reflecting on 26 years of market calls, Burry revealed he nearly entered the market when Bitcoin was trading under $200 after meeting with a friend at Lightspeed Venture Partners. Despite this admission of a missed trade, he remains highly critical of the asset, characterizing its current structure as a "speculative bubble" without a stable real-economy purpose. Current Bitcoin Outlook and "Death Spiral" Warning While admitting he missed the early 2013 run, Burry's 2026 stance is decidedly bearish. He has issued several warnings regarding the potential for a "collateral death spiral" in the crypto markets. Market Crash Comparison: Under his "Cassandra Unchained" persona, Burry shared a chart in February 2026 comparing current patterns to the 2021-2022 collapse. He noted that Bitcoin fell from an October peak of $126,000 to approximately $70,000, and warned of a further slide toward the low $50,000s. Institutional Risk: Burry argues that a drop to $50,000 could trigger forced liquidations for overleveraged institutional holders and mining firms. He specifically cited Michael Saylor’s company, Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), as being at risk of being shut out of capital markets if prices continue to slide. Failure as a Hedge: He contends that Bitcoin has failed its test as a durable hedge against currency debasement, noting that it has not mirrored the record highs seen in gold and silver during recent periods of geopolitical stress. Precious Metals Impact: Burry estimated that roughly $1 billion in tokenized precious metals were liquidated at the end of January 2026 due to forced de-risking from falling crypto prices. Burry's Broader Market Context This recent "self-audit" of his career highlights a history of contrarian bets beyond cryptocurrency: Early Successes: He noted shorting Amazon at its 2000 peak, buying Apple in 1998 and 2002, and entering Korea and China stocks in 2003–2004 ahead of major runs. The "AI Bubble": Currently, Burry is heavily positioned against major tech firms. As of early 2026, he holds significant put options against Nvidia (approx. $186 million notional) and Palantir (approx. $912 million notional), believing the AI sector is in a bubble similar to the late-1990s dot-com era #MichaelBurry #bitcoincrash #CryptoNews #PredictionMarketsCFTCBacking

🔍 The Real Truth: Why the Market Crashed (And What’s Next) ° If you are feeling the "Extreme Fear" today, you aren't alone. With the Fear & Greed Index at 9, we are witnessing one of the most aggressive revaluations in crypto history. But why is this happening? As an informed trader, you need to look past the charts. Here are the 4 Authentic Reasons for the current market drawdown: 1. The Fed’s "Hawkish" Pivot 🏦 The appointment of new Fed leadership has shifted the narrative. The market is now pricing in "higher for longer" interest rates. As the DXY (Dollar Index) surges above 97.5, liquidity is being sucked out of risk assets like ETH. 2. Institutional ETF Outflows 📉 In 2025, ETFs were our best friend. In 2026, they’ve become a source of pressure. We’ve seen over $3B in net outflows recently as hedge funds unwind "basis trades" that are no longer profitable. When the big money exits the room, volatility follows. 3. The "Digital Gold" Test 🥇 While Bitcoin is recovering toward $70,000, it recently failed to decouple from tech stocks. During the latest geopolitical tensions, real Gold hit new all-time highs while BTC dropped. The market is currently treating Bitcoin as High-Beta Tech, not a safe haven. 4. The $3.2B Liquidation Cascade 🌊 On February 5th, we saw the largest realized loss since 2022. Over-leveraged "long" positions were wiped out in hours, creating a forced-selling spiral that pushed us below the 200-week EMA. 💡 The Silver Lining: Extreme Fear (9/100) has historically been a generational accumulation zone. While the "weak hands" panic, the "smart money" is looking at the RWA ($OM) and AI ($FET) sectors for the next structural leg up. Are you selling the fear or buying the fundamental shift?

If you are feeling the "Extreme Fear" today, you aren't alone. With the Fear & Greed Index at 9, we are witnessing one of the most aggressive revaluations in crypto history. But why is this happening?

As an informed trader, you need to look past the charts. Here are the 4 Authentic Reasons for the current market drawdown:

1. The Fed’s "Hawkish" Pivot 🏦
The appointment of new Fed leadership has shifted the narrative. The market is now pricing in "higher for longer" interest rates. As the DXY (Dollar Index) surges above 97.5, liquidity is being sucked out of risk assets like
ETH.

2. Institutional ETF Outflows 📉
In 2025, ETFs were our best friend. In 2026, they’ve become a source of pressure. We’ve seen over $3B in net outflows recently as hedge funds unwind "basis trades" that are no longer profitable. When the big money exits the room, volatility follows.

3. The "Digital Gold" Test 🥇
While Bitcoin is recovering toward $70,000, it recently failed to decouple from tech stocks. During the latest geopolitical tensions, real Gold hit new all-time highs while BTC dropped. The market is currently treating Bitcoin as High-Beta Tech, not a safe haven.

4. The $3.2B Liquidation Cascade 🌊
On February 5th, we saw the largest realized loss since 2022. Over-leveraged "long" positions were wiped out in hours, creating a forced-selling spiral that pushed us below the 200-week EMA.

💡 The Silver Lining:
Extreme Fear (9/100) has historically been a generational accumulation zone. While the "weak hands" panic, the "smart money" is looking at the RWA ($OM ) and AI ($FET ) sectors for the next structural leg up.

Bitcoin Crashes Hard, But ETF Flows Show No Investor Panic – Crypto Winter Fears Overblown? Bitcoin has nearly halved from its October 2025 peak, shedding over 25% in the past month to test $60K lows, reigniting "crypto winter" alarms like 2022's FTX meltdown. Yet spot Bitcoin ETFs like BlackRock's IBIT saw $28B outflows in recent months – still up $21B net yearly – signaling steady long-term holders, not mass exodus. ETF Data Reveals Split Sell-Off Short-term traders and hedge funds are dumping via liquid ETFs amid momentum shifts, while HODLers stick put. Spot BTC ETFs netted $5.8B outflows last 3 months but $14.2B inflows over the year – no capitulation signs. Experts: Speculation Era Ends, Stability Ahead Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan says selling comes from long-held crypto natives, not ETF panic. Galaxy's Novogratz eyes shift to RWAs with 11% returns, ditching retail hype. Binance Square crew, ETF resilience amid dumps hints at bottoming – accumulate BTC futures now? Or wait for $38K?

Bitcoin Crashes Hard, But ETF Flows Show No Investor Panic – Crypto Winter Fears Overblown?

Bitcoin has nearly halved from its October 2025 peak, shedding over 25% in the past month to test $60K lows, reigniting "crypto winter" alarms like 2022's FTX meltdown. Yet spot Bitcoin ETFs like BlackRock's IBIT saw $28B outflows in recent months – still up $21B net yearly – signaling steady long-term holders, not mass exodus.

ETF Data Reveals Split Sell-Off
Short-term traders and hedge funds are dumping via liquid ETFs amid momentum shifts, while HODLers stick put. Spot BTC ETFs netted $5.8B outflows last 3 months but $14.2B inflows over the year – no capitulation signs.

Peter Schiff just dropped the mic. He's not just calling $BTC a threat to investors, he's saying it's going to zero. No systemic threat to gold. Only ruin for buyers. This isn't speculation. This is a direct economic takedown. His stance is clear: $BTC is a bubble destined to burst. He claims a superior understanding of money. The loudest critic is doubling down. Expect mass insolvency.
