Bitcoin short positions accounted for about $67 million in liquidations, followed by $23 million for Dogecoin and $21 million for Ether. Long bets weren\u2019t spared, either, with about $256 million in long positions liquidated in the same period. Overall, CoinGlass data indicated that over 218,000 traders\u2019 positions were affected, bringing the total liquidation amount to $682.7 million.<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 993px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: CoinGlass<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Among the significant individual losses, a user on OKX saw a $15.6 million liquidation while swapping Bitcoin to Tether. This spike in liquidations is one of the highest in recent history, with a particular peak on Nov. 6. On that day alone, nearly $350 million in short positions were liquidated as Bitcoin briefly dipped below $69,000, just days before the U.S. election. As evidence of the coin\u2019s ongoing growth, TradingView data revealed that Bitcoin\u2019s dominance also increased above 59%, reaching its highest level since October.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The market\u2019s prognosis improved after the recent U.S. election, where pro-crypto candidates were elected to the Senate and House of Representatives. Analysts claim that the \u201cTrump Effect\u201d is partially to blame for Bitcoin\u2019s rapid rise, since the political resurgence of Donald Trump has reportedly increased interest in crypto among individual investors. BTC Markets CEO Caroline Bowler reported last week that her platform had a 300% increase in user logins, the most in six months.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to onchain analyst James Check, Bitcoin\u2019s price rally has entered the \u201cEuphoria zone,\u201d with a convincing break above its previous peak. Despite this rapid rise, Check noted that Bitcoin\u2019s Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) Ratio remains relatively balanced, suggesting that the market may still have room to grow. He pointed out that months of gradual price increases allowed investors to adjust to higher prices, which may provide a stable foundation for future rallies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bitcoin\u2019s historic rise continues to affect investors across the globe, with substantial changes in market sentiment, dominance, and position liquidations reflecting its enduring impact on the financial landscape.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nftevening.com\/bitcoin-climbs-81000-impacting-short-sellers\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=bitcoin-climbs-81000-impacting-short-sellers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Short Positions Are Shaking As Bitcoin Reaches a Record High Crypto traders who were betting on a market downturn were caught off guard as Bitcoin surged past $81,000, hitting a new all-time high and triggering substantial liquidations in short positions.
