Shorting Bitcoin ☠️

Bitcoin's rise above $30,000 led to over $145 million in short positions being liquidated in the last 24 hours. 87% of all futures trades that settled during this period were short positions.

The largest liquidation order, for $11 million, occurred at Huobi. Now, the exchange platform registered more than 45 million dollars in liquidations.

The increasing adoption of Bitcoin among investors is possibly due to worsening economic conditions around the world.
