Bitcoin's supposed to be "liquid" but I'm wondering what happens when there's a forced liquidity event.

I mean, it's the opposite of that; it's forced illiquidity when people lose access to their keys. There is no way to gain access to those coins and you cannot "force" liquidity on the bitcoin protocol.

If people are trading bitcoin on margin or if Strategy is forced to sell a large percentage of its holdings.
