Bitcoin Bulls vs Bears : The Leverage Battle Is Getting Serious

Today, 4 traders have built a combined short position of 3,895 $BTC worth ~$249.4M, with liquidation levels ranging from $64.6K to $66.5K.

Meanwhile, 2 traders are betting on the upside, holding 1,547 $BTC worth ~$99.1M, with liquidation levels around $61.2K–$61.8K.

This is exactly the kind of positioning that can make #BTC extremely volatile.

Bears have significantly more exposure, but that also means a strong move above the $64.6K–$66.5K zone could put serious pressure on shorts and potentially trigger a liquidation cascade.

On the flip side, losing $61.2K–$61.8K could put the leveraged longs under heavy pressure.

Almost $350M in leveraged positions are now sitting between these liquidation zones.

Now we wait to see who gets trapped first. 🐂 🐻
