How VWAP Strategy Executed David Bailey’s $760M Bitcoin Mega-Purchase in 2025

Wall Street meets Satoshi: When institutional money moves, it doesn't HODL—it hunts for precision. Here's how one whale swallowed $760M in BTC without moving the market.

The Stealth Billionaire Playbook

Volume-Weighted Average Price (VWAP) isn't just trader jargon—it's the scalpel used to carve out positions worth nine figures. Forget 'buy the dip'—this is algorithmic accumulation at scale.

Why VWAP beats market orders

Market buys scream 'front-run me!' to HFT sharks. VWAP? It whispers. By slicing the $760M order across liquidity pools and time, Bailey's team likely saved tens of millions in slippage—enough to buy a private island with the leftovers.

The irony? This 'sophisticated' strategy just automated what OTC desks did manually for years—proving crypto markets are just legacy finance with better memes.
