Bitcoin is back in the spotlight.

$BTC pushed above $86,000, reaching its highest level since January as the broader crypto market gained momentum. Ethereum, XRP and Solana also moved higher during the rally.

📈 What’s behind the move?

Several factors are coming together:

• Heavy short liquidations added buying pressure

• Falling oil prices improved the broader risk environment

• U.S. Treasury yields moved lower

• Bitcoin ETF flows recently turned positive

• BTC reclaimed levels that had previously acted as resistance

💥 Short sellers took a major hit

Around $648 million in crypto short positions were liquidated during the move, helping accelerate the upside as traders betting against the market were forced to close positions.

🏛️ Another major development today

The Moscow Exchange is launching perpetual futures linked to Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP and TRON. The contracts are aimed at qualified investors and will be settled in Russian rubles.
