Bitcoin jumps past $81K, wiping out $415M in shorts amid easing geopolitical tensions.

Bitcoin surged above $81,000, pushing its market cap over $1.62 trillion as geopolitical tensions between the US and Iran eased. This rally triggered a massive short squeeze, liquidating over $415 million in short positions across crypto derivatives. Despite the strong rebound, analysts warn Bitcoin faces resistance near $83,000 and could fall into a 'bull trap' without sustained buying. The price action highlights Bitcoin's growing role as an inflation hedge amid ongoing global uncertainties.
