Massive deleveraging hit Bitcoin shorts over the last hour—$110 million in liquidations swept through the market. That's what happens when leveraged bets get caught on the wrong side of momentum. The scale of unwinding suggests serious momentum behind BTC, and traders are scrambling to cover positions. When this much short liquidation fires off in such a compressed timeframe, it typically signals conviction from the bullish camp. Market structure matters, and right now the shorts are bleeding.

Here we go again with the same routine, shorts get liquidated for 110 million dollars. Why do I feel like this market move is just like last time—fizzling out at the end? --- Watching these short-term traders get wiped out is kind of satisfying, but is Bitcoin really about to take off? I'm skeptical. --- Damn, the lifespan of short-term traders is so fragile—liquidations of 110 million in one hour look fierce, but I'm still waiting for a breakout signal. --- $110M liquidation is happening again, and someone is calling for a bottom reversal... Really? They say that every time, but what’s the result? --- Short sellers are bleeding out, but the problem is, we haven't seen a real breakout to the upside yet. I've seen plenty of short-term dumps like this. --- Analysis: Short-term bulls are attacking fiercely, and technically, the short-term outlook is indeed positive. But... I still think it's safer to wait before jumping in. --- Haha, here we go again, every time it's "serious momentum" and "bullish consensus." I've gone all-in three times and still haven't recovered. --- Feels like this cleaning wave is really aggressive—liquidating 110 million in one shot. Is another main rally about to start behind the scenes? Never mind, I’ll stay on the sidelines.

Over 100 million USD liquidated, this wave of shorts was really beaten hard. Look at this pace, the bulls are indeed showing some strength. Are the shorts still holding on? Better run now. So many liquidations in a short period... Luckily I switched to long positions early. Oh my, this drop was quite fierce, it scared me. Short sellers, now you know what market structure means. Just one hour to explode 110 million, that's crazy. Shorts keep holding, the next wave could be even worse. This is the price of betting on the wrong direction. The bulls are gaining momentum, it feels like a bull market is coming.
