Binance-only BTC plunge: Peter Brandt says it pushes investors off a cliff
Veteran trader Peter Brandt (피터 브란트) questioned the reliability of trading infrastructure after a sharp Bitcoin drop occurred only on Binance. He said the move abnormally triggered retail stop-loss orders and liquidations. During trading on Aug. 22, Binance’s BTC/USD price briefly fell to $72,500, while the broader market held around $79,000. The gap versus Coinbase reached $3,300, he said, creating conditions for cascading stop-outs on Binance.
