The crypto market just witnessed a sharp shake-out—nearly $100 million in short positions got wiped out within the hour as Bitcoin surged past the $93,000 level. This kind of rapid liquidation cascade typically signals aggressive bullish momentum, with leveraged traders getting caught on the wrong side. The price action reflects heightened volatility and conviction among long-positioned players.

Short sellers got liquidated again, maybe this wave of shorters should wake up now.

The short positions got wiped out in a wave, which is why you should avoid leverage.

$100m shorts getting liquidated in an hour... statistically speaking, that's the kind of cascade reminds me of UST in May. smart money was positioned long the whole time, tbh.

A liquidation of 1 million dollars was completed within an hour. This magnitude indicates that the current leverage ratio for short positions is indeed too high. From the perspective of computing power profit ratio, this wave of increase is actually a good opportunity for buying the dip.
