Bitcoin whale opens $94.6M short ahead of FOMC decision

  • —The $94.6M short was opened at 13x leverage near $80,900–81,000
  • —BTC slid from $81,683 to $80,322 in the New York session
  • —The Fed is expected to hold rates at 3.75–4%
  • —Options walls cluster near $80,000, with max pain at $80,500
Why it matters: A position this size ahead of the FOMC adds to caution: a hawkish Fed tone could push BTC toward $80K or lower.
