Bitcoin ripped 5% to $69K today and everyone's celebrating. But here's the thing: it wasn't real buying. This was a short squeeze triggered by US-Iran strikes. Forced liquidations, not fresh capital. Open interest jumped 6% while price only moved 3.8%. That gap tells you everything. $218M in long liquidations sitting at $65K. $90M in shorts above $70K. The derivatives market is a powder keg right now. Fear and Greed Index at 64 (Greed) after months of bleeding? Crypto traders have the shortest memories in finance.(Whale Factor)
