Santiment Intelligence

Uptober never came, according to our newly published Santiment Monthly Report for October’26. $BTC fell 7%, yet its holders still realized about $7.86B in net profit.

📉 Every asset we track finished the month lower.
🚨 The Binance hack, the largest on record, pushed hack mentions to 2,995 on Oct 30, nearly double Bybit’s peak. Weighted sentiment hit a three-month low on Oct 29, then flipped to the month’s most positive by Oct 31.
🐋 Wallets holding 10 to 10,000 BTC added about 91,500 BTC from Sep 18 to the Oct 31 close, and now hold 68.13% of supply.
🔀 $ETH went the other way: about $0.51B in net realized losses, with 16 of 18 days in the red from Oct 14.

A record hack, a three-month sentiment low, and still no Bitcoin capitulation.

A trader called $XRP lower, to ~$0.99, and said the call is wrong if XRP closes above $1.36. XRP is down ~10% since.

Called it, or lucky timing? The whole market dropped too.

🐋 Among the most profitable XRP wallets, only one is long, and it hasn’t traded since August. Three active shorts have added ~2.1M XRP since late October.

📊 XRP still needs another ~17% drop to hit the call’s target, so this one isn’t settled.

🎯 On Score, all 3 traders who went against the call are underwater for now.

The prediction window closes in under 2 days, and the market resolves Nov 19.
