In mid-May 2026, Bitcoin experienced a sharp crash triggered by a drop in exchange outflows to 19,995 BTC, well below the average, signaling weakening buyer confidence. At the same time, traders aggressively built short positions, confirmed by deeply negative funding rates and rising open interest. This led to a massive long liquidation event where $109.7 million in long positions were forcefully closed over three days. Inflation data released during this period added to market fears, worsening the sell-off. Analysts say a recovery depends on a return to negative netflow (more outflows than inflows) and a reduction in long liquidations, indicating renewed buyer confidence and less forced selling.
