It seems I'm wrong with valuation it has surged.

> extremely liquid market.

No it's not. The value collapses every time there is sell side. Jumps every time there is little more than average demand.

Surged since when? 2019?!

That's not liquidity. That's volatility - otherwise known as price discovery - completely natural in a young extremely fast-growing asset. It continuously gets over-bought and then over-sold as it continues along it's exponential path of overall growth.

Just looking at Coinbase, its BTCUSD pair alone has a trading volume of ~$1B/day. How much liquidity do you want?
