@55 MARKETS / ACADEMY
The network, leverage and the flows behind the price
Crypto from the inside
Everything the price chart does not show: how new bitcoin is created and what it costs, who holds it, how leverage builds up and gets wiped out, and which money is coming in or going out.

SYLLABUS
4 modules, 16 lessons.
Follow the sequence or go straight to the page you need.
The network
Blocks, the issuance schedule, the cost of mining a bitcoin and the wallets that hold the most. The supply side of the market, which no one can change.
Derivatives
Perpetual futures, funding, open interest, the long/short ratio and options. How to measure leverage — and why none of these numbers predicts the price on its own.
Liquidations
What a liquidation is, how the heatmap estimates where they would happen, how cascades form — and how not to be part of one.
Flows and sentiment
Spot ETFs, stablecoins, the CFTC's COT report and the Fear & Greed index: the money that comes in, the money that waits, how institutions are positioned and how the crowd feels.
Who is it for?
For anyone who already knows what bitcoin is and wants to read the data around it. No trading experience needed; no leverage recommended.
