A massive liquidation cascade could unfold if Bitcoin breaks through to $95K—we're talking roughly $1.5 billion in short positions that would get wiped off the board with just a 5% rally. That's the kind of price action that tends to create feedback loops in the derivatives market. The key levels are being watched closely as traders position for the next move, and with leverage positions this size stacked on the short side, even moderate upside could trigger a squeeze. It's a reminder of how quickly sentiment can flip in crypto markets when technical levels break.

Whoa, is the 1.5B short squeeze about to blow up? This time, a big show is really about to unfold.

The shorts are really going to be taught a lesson this time. Is 1.5B in positions just gone like that? Once 95K breaks through, these leverage dogs will probably have a hard time sleeping, haha.

95K breaking the short will be the end, a 1.5B order just disappears, this is the madness of crypto.

The shorts should be nervous; 95K is just a fuse.

The shorts are about to get into trouble. 1.5B just vanished into thin air? I'm just waiting to see this squeeze play out.
