$BTC Rushing on an $87,0000 entry throttle, striking the pain point where short sellers are concentrated for liquidation. In the derivatives market, more than $1 billion in short positions have been repeatedly triggered for liquidation. Forced buying fans out layer by layer, igniting a liquidity vacuum and pushing prices onto a new plateau.

Basing gains solely on short-squeeze momentum is often not firmly rooted; the chart quickly shows a resonance with outflows of off-exchange liquidity. On a single day, spot ETF net inflows neared $1 billion. Among them, IBIT, FBTC, and ARKB all recorded several hundred million dollars in additional active buying. Contract pressure is responsible for tearing open the breakthrough at the front end, while the real spot capital steps in at the back end to absorb high-level supply.

This dual-wheel drive is reshaping the structure of the current contest. In the short term, the squeeze-driven sentiment will eventually fade. Whether the rebound can be converted into a more sustained trend space depends on whether spot liquidity can maintain a steady willingness to absorb at these elevated levels. If institutional incremental buying pauses even slightly, the open positions accumulated at high levels will turn into potential washout pressure.
