Bitcoin surged above $84,000, triggering nearly $83 million in short position liquidations as bearish traders were forced to exit. This price level has previously caused significant short squeezes, including a $262 million liquidation event in September. The recent rally was supported by factors like Federal Reserve rate decisions, ETF inflows, and reduced selling pressure, not just short covering. Whether Bitcoin can sustain above $84,000 depends more on ongoing spot demand than on forced liquidations.
