I just saw that Bitcoin made a strong jump to $78K recently, mainly driven by massive liquidations of short positions. It seems that geopolitical movements triggered a classic short squeeze, with nearly $357 million in shorts liquidated within minutes. The interesting thing is that analysts point out that this rally was more due to panic selling from those in short positions, rather than new genuine demand in the spot market. These short squeezes can cause quite violent price spikes, but they don't always reflect a sustained change in market sentiment. In any case, when you see these massive liquidations, it's a good time to watch out for volatility.
