Crypto crashes are loud.
Recoveries are not.
That asymmetry is why most traders miss the turn.
What Actually Leaves During a Crash
When crypto crashes, it’s not just price that drops.
Participation disappears.
Leverage gets wiped.
Speculators exit.
Volume spikes — then vanishes.
What’s left afterward is a market with less noise and fewer forced sellers. That’s not bullish yet — but it’s necessary.
Liquidity can’t return while panic is active.
It returns when fear gets boring.
Why the Bottom Never Feels Obvious
After a crash:
Price stops falling fast
Volatility compresses
Volume dries up
News stays negative
Nothing feels like a bottom.
That’s the point.
Liquidity doesn’t rush back in. It probes. Small bids appear. Dips stop extending. Sellers push — and get nothing.
That’s accumulation starting quietly.
