Bitcoin surged past $86,000, gaining 6% in a day and pushing its market cap to $1.72 trillion, close to its 2026 opening price of $87,575. The rally was driven by a massive short squeeze liquidating over $454 million in short positions within 24 hours, signaling strong buying momentum. Despite this surge, weekly ETF outflows of $300 million continue to weigh on the market. Analysts see this price action as a potential end to the recent trading range, with increased leverage and capital inflows suggesting further upside potential.
