Andrew Tate questions BTC as CZ hails deep liquidity after 10,624 BTC buy
- Andrew Tate flagged Strategy’s 10,624 BTC single‑day purchase on X and asked why it failed to trigger a major price spike.
- CZ replied that buying roughly one to two‑thousandths of BTC’s market cap barely dents global order books when routed through algorithms.
- Market depth from ETFs, institutional rebalancing, miner flows and arbitrage lets hundreds of millions in BTC change hands with limited slippage.
An exchange on social media platform X between Andrew Tate and Binance founder Changpeng Zhao sparked discussion over Bitcoin’s market liquidity after Strategy purchased 10,624 BTC in a single day with minimal price impact.
Andrew Tate goes on Bitcoin rant
Tate, who has previously expressed support for Bitcoin (BTC), questioned why the large purchase failed to move the market, according to posts on X. Zhao responded with an explanation of Bitcoin’s market depth and liquidity characteristics.
“Buying one two-thousandth of the market cap usually does not cause much of a wave. Bitcoin is liquid,” Zhao stated in his response.
Zhao noted that Strategy’s 10,000 BTC purchase represents approximately one to two thousandths of Bitcoin’s total market capitalization, a proportion too small to significantly affect pricing across global order books.
The Bitcoin market has evolved substantially from its early years, with increased institutional participation, spot exchange-traded fund trading volumes, and deep liquidity across major trading venues worldwide. Large purchases worth hundreds of millions of dollars can now be absorbed with minimal price disruption when executed through algorithmic trading strategies, according to market analysts.
Companies such as Strategy typically employ volume-weighted or time-weighted algorithms that distribute buying activity across multiple exchanges to prevent slippage and avoid sharp price movements, industry observers note.
Bitcoin currently operates as a multi-trillion-dollar asset with substantial liquidity for a decentralized commodity. Single-day purchases, regardless of size, often integrate into ongoing institutional rebalancing, ETF flows, miner sales, and global arbitrage activity.
Strategy’s continued accumulation of Bitcoin throughout 2024 and 2025 represents a reduction in circulating supply over time, according to market commentators.
