Asia's overnight session (00:00-08:00 UTC) was a risk-off, small-cap affair: BTC sell volume ($223.4M) outran buy volume ($37.6M) nearly 6-to-1, ETH saw almost no bid support at all, and micro-caps DigiByte, ARG, and ESPORTS whipsawed double digits on thin books. The session's headline dislocation was a 30.33% cross-exchange spread on ESPORTS between Binance Futures and KuCoin.
