As of January 30, 2026, Bitcoin (BTC) short momentum has fully erupted, with prices once breaking through the $81,000 mark, not only refreshing the annual low for 2026 but also falling over 30% from the historical high of October 2025 ($126,296). Amidst the market's lament, Coinbase's main "artistic orders" once again demonstrated their terrifying directional significance.
Data Review: Coinbase's Main "Artistic Orders" Win Twice
Looking back at the recent market, Coinbase exhibited two highly representative "artistic order" sell behaviors, judged by transaction scale and order structure, both resulting in a significant price drop after execution.
What is an "Artistic Order"?
An artistic order is not a random sell-off but refers to:
- The number of orders and price spacing showing high regularity
- Common forms include fixed price differences (e.g., every $100)
- The purpose is not to "grab transactions" but to continuously release supply pressure to the market
Such behavior usually comes from larger institutions or professional accounts and has a strong indicative meaning for short-term trends.
First Artistic Order
Time: January 24, 2026, early morning
Transaction Amount: Approximately $9.349 million
Average Transaction Price: $90,501.85**
After the transaction was completed, the Bitcoin price weakened, dropping to a low of $86,000.13, a decline of about 5%.
Second Artistic Order (Key)
Time: Around 21:00 on January 30, 2026
Transaction Amount: Approximately $5.7291 million
Average Transaction Price: $90,166.8**
Subsequently, the market quickly weakened, with BTC continuing to drop, reaching a low of $81,000.12, a decline of nearly 10%.
It is worth noting that at the time of the second artistic order, we had already reminded in the PRO CLUB member group:
- Coinbase's main large orders are abnormal
- It is recommended to pay close attention to transaction results and subsequent price reactions

For users who have activated Main Large Order Monitoring + Transaction Alerts, the core value of the main large order function lies in:
Turning "invisible institutional behavior" into quantifiable and alertable signals in advance, allowing one to see "the chips are moving" before emotions collapse.
Main Driving Factors of This Round of Decline
In addition to the incentives for main selling, this crash is the result of multiple negative factors resonating:
1. Continuous Outflow of Spot Bitcoin ETF Funds
- Net outflow exceeded $1.1 billion within a week
- One of the largest single-week outflows since early 2025
- Institutions are clearly reducing their Bitcoin exposure
2. Overall Pressure on Risk Assets
The total market capitalization of the crypto market dropped about 6% within 24 hours
Not only BTC, but the entire crypto sector is simultaneously deleveraging and reducing risk
3. Rising Macroeconomic Uncertainty
- Delayed interest rate hike expectations
- Risk of U.S. government shutdown
- Geopolitical tensions
- Disturbances such as rare earth tariffs
- Funds are temporarily flowing into safe-haven assets like gold and government bonds, putting pressure on high-volatility asset valuations.
4. Derivative Structure Amplifying Declines
- On January 30, nearly $9 billion worth of Bitcoin options will expire, with a large number of call options being "out of the money"
- The overall sentiment in the options market is bearish
- The order book liquidity is thin, and even a slight selling pressure can easily trigger a nonlinear decline
Summary
The current market is no longer a time for blindly bottom-fishing but a battleground for tracking main data. Coinbase's two consecutive precise "artistic large orders" prove that: data is more honest than intuition.
