Noticed the recent Bitcoin short position volume? A full $6 billion is stacked there.

What does this mean? Once BTC really surges past the $100,000 mark, this position will be liquidated like dominoes one after another. Those betting against the market will be ruthlessly swept out.

In this scenario, every upward step could trigger a chain reaction — shorts forced to cut losses, pushing prices higher, causing more liquidations, cycling repeatedly. Theoretically, it has all the conditions to create a violent surge that leaves shorts hopeless.

How likely do you think Bitcoin is to break through $100,000?

BTC-0.01%

60 billion short positions piled up there, if it really breaks 100,000, it will be a slaughter. 100,000 yuan? I think it's a matter of when, not if. The problem isn't whether it can happen, but when. The bears probably can't sleep well now, they are sulking every day.

6 billion in short positions? Ha, I saw it coming a long time ago. It's just a perfect long trap. Confident about 100,000, but the idea of a violent surge is too idealized; reality isn't that dramatic. No matter how many shorts there are, they have to eat the orders. The question is, who dares to go all-in at this moment? Breaking through $100K? The probability isn't low, but it depends on how the whales play. This is the easiest time to reverse, I've seen too many people go all-in and end up losing everything. 6 billion is indeed just a number, but the real battle of chips has just begun.

6 billion short positions? Bro, this is the signal given by the market maker, the trigger for a 100,000 liquidation feast. Those who are bearish really need to cut their losses this time, but I still have to say, be cautious when chasing highs, everyone. From a technical perspective, looking at support levels, breaking past 100,000 does have some potential, but don’t get caught in a squeeze. Short liquidation ≠ making money; retail traders are always most likely to rush in at this point. Risk control first, that's how I see it, whether it’s going up or down.

6 billion short positions? Ha, still making up stories. I'm well acquainted with the tricks of Ponzi schemes. These shorts fools are only willing to be liquidated before they’re satisfied. But ten thousand dollars? I think it's unlikely.

6 billion short positions piled up there, to be honest, it's a bit questionable... Shorts should be despairing now 100,000 dollars? It's only a matter of time, just see who can't hold on first Shorts are really going to be washed out this time, haha Let the domino effect begin, and just take off 100,000 is still possible, the question is when The lesson from this wave of shorts is too profound... Breaking 100,000 is just a matter of time, not if but when Shorts should be insomnia now, 6 billion

6 billion short positions? Haha, that's a multiple of the money I lost last time I bottom-fished. --- $100,000? Honestly, I don't dare to gamble. If I lose, I have to pay tuition again. --- If this wave really surges up, my "comrades" who are shorting will all be collectively wiped out. Serves them right, who asked them to go against the trend. --- The domino analogy is perfect; every fall represents someone's account liquidation. It looks satisfying to watch, but I haven't bottom-fished enough either. --- Wait, isn’t this a contrarian indicator? If I’m optimistic, I could lose money. The logic checks out. --- 6 billion compared to $100,000, feels like the market is trying to induce a short squeeze. But I don't dare to bet on that; last time I almost didn't make it out alive. --- A hopeless violent surge in the short positions... sounds like a rhythm to harvest the leeks. I think I’ll stay out of it.

6 billion short positions? Haha, this is just a bunch of leeks waiting to be harvested. Breaking 100,000 is really just a matter of these two weeks. The bears must be unable to sleep. Every rally is a liquidation feast. It's hard to imagine anyone still holding on stubbornly.

60 billion short positions? These guys betting against are really hardcore, betting BTC to fall all the way to the bottom. Breaking 100,000? I think the probability is still quite high; it all depends on whether this wave of market can give the bears a "horrible theater." --- The bears are really sitting on a volcano this time; once it breaks through, it will be a slaughterhouse. --- Honestly, if this domino effect really falls, those who go against the trend will basically be giving money to the exchanges. --- $100,000? They should have been there long ago; I'm just worried about the repeated tug-of-war in the middle. --- Looking at this open interest, I know that the bears might really be cleaned out this time. --- Every time it rises a level, a batch gets wiped out. How is this game played... it’s a bit bloody.

60 billion short positions piled up here, waiting to be harvested. If this wave really hits ten thousand, I want to see a good show. Wait, the question is who will push it to ten thousand? Can short squeeze alone achieve this increase? Ten thousand dollars? Honestly, I’d give this a 50-50 chance. It mainly depends on what the macro environment does. No matter how many shorts there are, I’m not afraid. What I fear is that the whales don’t have enough chips to throw in, and what if they reverse and harvest the longs? Hmm... this logic sounds too good to be true. Every time the market theoretically looks perfect, it’s easy to reverse course. Feeling a bit hesitant.
