A massive $1.29 billion sale of BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) triggered headlines across financial media, but according to Scott Melker, most outlets completely missed the actual story. In this episode of The Daily Wolf, Melker explains why bitcoin’s price barely moved despite what became the largest institutional bitcoin ETF sale ever recorded. The key detail? The sale happened through a dark pool transaction, meaning there was a massive buyer quietly sitting on the other side of the trade.
