Robinhood Announces New Layer 2 Blockchain

A seasoned crypto analyst has warned that the recent Bitcoin (BTC) price 
action may be setting the stage for major liquidity traps, echoing patterns 
seen in past cycles. As the leading cryptocurrency aims for new all-time 
highs, the pundit suggests that market makers could be deliberately 
engineering conditions for bear traps before triggering a powerful breakout. 
Bitcoin Path To ATH Riddled With Liquidity Traps Crypto market expert Luca has 
shared intriguing insights into Bitcoin’s latest price behavior, arguing that 
the market may be entering a classic liquidity trap phase allegedly 
orchestrated by market makers. The analyst stated in an X (formerly Twitter) 
post that Bitcoin’s price action since topping out in late May 2025 has 
followed a suspicious pattern. He noted that despite experiencing several 
price rallies, not a single local high has been swept in the past few weeks.

Wedge Luca suggests that this rare price structure could be a deliberate 
setup, giving the illusion of stability and offering false conviction in 
bearish positions. The analyst warns that market makers have possibly 
influenced this market behavior by baiting shorts into entering or holding 
positions with the assumption that Bitcoin could continue to be capped below 
resistance. Ideally, this underpins the theory that bear traps are potentially 
being set as BTC gears up for its next bullish rally. Notably, multiple key 
resistance levels are now stacked tightly between $109,000 and $112,000, as 
highlighted on the analyst’s 4-hour Bitcoin chart. While BTC has been 
consolidating just below these levels, forming what appears to be a potential 
base, Luca argues that this price behavior is not a coincidence. Rather than 
market weakness, he believes the subdued price action reflects a calculated 
effort by market makers to encourage bearish complacency. The pundit 
interprets the deliberate avoidance of liquidity above these resistance lines 
as a signal that deeper bear traps are possibly being laid. Luca has revealed 
that this setup could be laying the groundwork for a sudden short squeeze, 
potentially igniting a sharp move toward a new all-time high for Bitcoin. 
Analyst Says BTC 2024 Breakout Back In Play Adding historical context to his 
analysis, Luca compares the current market structure to a prolonged 
consolidation phase observed throughout 2024. On the second 8-hour chart, a 
clear trendline of resistance can be seen capping Bitcoin’s upside for most of 
the previous year. Related Reading: Bitcoin Flashes Double Top Above $106,000: 
FVG Says A Large Crash Is Coming The chart shows that price action 
consistently failed to break above the descending barrier, with multiple 
attempts being rejected between March and October. Each rejection was marked 
by unswept highs—similar to the current market setup and suggesting that 
shorts were systematically being protected. This compression finally resolved 
in November 2024, when Bitcoin erupted through the resistance and launched a 
parabolic move to new highs. That breakout was fueled by the exact mechanism 
Luca now believes is in motion. With historical patterns now resurfacing, the 
analyst maintains that Bitcoin’s ongoing suppression and untouched highs are 
part of a blueprint that indicates a possible bullish move toward uncharted 
price territory. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from Tradingview.com
