So here's the thing: a major institution just accumulated 13,627 BTC, yet the market barely flinched. Either the whales are holding steady to prevent panic moves, or the market's gotten so used to institutional inflows that it barely registers anymore. Either way, it raises questions about what really moves Bitcoin these days—is it still supply and demand, or have we entered a phase where institutional players are deliberately managing price discovery?

Wait a minute, with 13,627 coins on such a large order, the market isn't reacting? This doesn't seem right. Either institutions are deliberately suppressing the price, or our market has already been manipulated.

13k BTC buy-in and no reaction? Wake up, everyone. This market has long been manipulated by big players.

Are 13,627 BTC poured into the market and nothing moves? That's incredible. What does this indicate?

13,627 Bitcoins entered the market with no reaction? It shows that retail investors have long been tamed.

It's just a mouse trap; when institutions accumulate shares, the market plays dead. The real show begins when they start to unload.

Honestly, these numbers have become numb... Big players buying over 13,000 BTC and there's no reaction? Either we've long been brainwashed by the system, or this market is really being held in the players' hands.
