In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin’s price surged past $93,000, triggering the liquidation of over $285 million in short positions. This sharp upward movement caught many traders off guard, forcing the automatic closure of their leveraged bets against Bitcoin. The current BTC price stands at $93,642, with an intraday high of $93,723 and a low of $88,027. The massive liquidations highlight the risks of shorting in the volatile crypto market, especially as Bitcoin continues to outperform expectations.
