When the market's running hot, spot traders holding assets face a real problem—moving tokens to an exchange to liquidate becomes counterintuitive. The bullish narrative is so strong that many hesitate to sell, worried they'll miss the rally. This psychological resistance creates friction in the typical sell flow. Without the constant stream of tokens hitting exchange wallets, what happens to sell-side liquidity? The dynamic shifts, and that matters for price action.

Wait, this logic is a bit backwards... The more optimistic you are, the less willing you are to sell? Isn't that just self-locking liquidity?

This psychological game is so real... The more bullish I am, the more reluctant I am to sell, and as a result, liquidity gets stuck.

Who the hell wants to sell when the market is so strong? Just afraid that a quick sell-off will cause a crash.

This psychological game is really amazing. Not daring to sell the coins for fear of missing out, but as a result, liquidity becomes tighter.
