What Does 'Holder Loss Spiral' Mean?

Brainrot Score: 6.1OBSERVED
[ SLANG ][ CRYPTO ][ TRADING ]

A self-reinforcing cycle in a collapsing meme coin where losses drive holders to sell at a loss, which drives the price down further, which drives more panic selling.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"Once it dropped below the launch price, it was a full holder loss spiral, everyone dumping at once."

LORE & ORIGIN

Named directly within crypto discourse for this specific downward feedback loop, distinct from a general liquidity spiral by centering on holder psychology and panic rather than pure market mechanics.
