🍋 BTC Cascading Long Squeeze
Word On The Street: A “cascading long squeeze” could explain Bitcoin's recent drop to 53-day lows, as miners continue to sell.
The details:
A long squeeze occurs when a large number of investors with long positions start selling their holdings as the price falls to cut their losses.
This triggers further price declines, leading to a cascading effect on other long-position holders.
The Crypto Fear and Greed Index recently plummeted to its lowest score in nearly 18 months.
Why it matters: According to CoinGlass data, a dip below $60,000, such as the one on June 24 when Bitcoin fell below $59,000, would wipe out $1.16 billion in long positions.
