Aerodrome ($AERO ) just pulled off a +25% move today, making it the top gainer on the board while BTC cooled off slightly.

Meanwhile, the real story is under the hood: over $3B in short positions got liquidated as Bitcoin briefly ripped above $87K before settling near $84K. That's not random volatility — that's a squeeze.

📊 Quick snapshot (Sep 26):
• BTC: ~$84K (-0.3%)
• Market cap: $2.98T (+0.3%)
• Fear & Greed Index: 74 → Greed
• DeFi market: +3%, now $87.7B

Sentiment has flipped bullish fast. The question now: is this the start of a real leg up, or just shorts getting squeezed before the next pullback?
