short by Medhaa Gupta / on Thursday, 26 February, 2026
Several social media users are speculating that US trader Jane Street allegedly executed a large and algorithmic market dump of Bitcoin at 10 am daily to manipulate the world's largest cryptocurrency's price. "Since Jane Street was sued two days ago...10 am manipulation has stopped. Bitcoin is up 10%, adding $120 billion to its market cap," market researcher Bull Theory said.
