The post Why Is Bitcoin Price Not Moving? Raoul Pal Explains ‘Largest Liquidation Event in History’<\/a> appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News<\/a><\/p>\n

Real Vision founder Raoul Pal <\/a>said the crypto market’s weakness isn’t a sign the bull run is over. It just hasn’t started yet. The macro investor gave a specific timeline: crypto prices should start moving by end of February 2026.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But first, he explained what’s been holding the market back in a recent video on Savvy Finance. <\/a><\/p>\n

What Really Happened on October 10th<\/h2>\n

Pal called the October 10th crash the largest crypto liquidation event in history. It started on Binance and spread across Asian exchanges.<\/p>\n

\n

“October the 10th was a crypto-specific event where everything broke basically on Binance and a few of the Asian exchanges and everybody got liquidated. The largest liquidation event in history and the market has not recovered from that yet,”<\/em> he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Market maker APIs broke during the sell-off. Automated liquidations kept firing with no buyers on the other side. Pal believes exchanges absorbed billions in positions to stop a full collapse. They’re now slowly selling that inventory, which explains the constant downward pressure.<\/p>\n

Gold Is Telling the Story<\/h2>\n

Pal pointed out that gold reacts to financial conditions immediately. Crypto takes about 180 days to catch up.<\/p>\n

Right now, gold is at all-time highs<\/a>. So are silver, copper, and the S&P 500. The US dollar has dropped around 13% in the past year.<\/p>\n

Crypto was the worst-performing major asset class during all of this. Pal said the gap isn’t about macro weakness, but about the October damage that still hasn’t healed.<\/p>\n

Elections Will Force Action<\/h2>\n

Midterm elections hit in November 2026. The administration needs the economy to feel stronger before voters head to the polls.<\/p>\n

Pal expects aggressive moves: tax breaks, fiscal stimulus, and new rules letting banks use more leverage. On the regulatory side, the Stability Act is moving fast, and a crypto market structure bill is working through the Senate.<\/p>\n

What Could Go Wrong<\/h2>\n

Pal didn’t promise anything. Another government shutdown or tariff issues could delay things.<\/p>\n

\n

“Nothing is a certainty. Everything is a probability,”<\/em> he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
