Bitcoin liquidation map hints at 100,000 dollar squeeze
Ether double bottom targets 3,900 dollars
A 7.4% rebound pulls focus to leveraged positions and forced orders.
[Liquidation wall below]: Around 10.65 billion dollars in longs face liquidation near 84,000 dollars, which adds downside volatility if price revisits that zone.
[Thin shorts above]: Only about 2 billion dollars in shorts sit above 104,000 dollars, so upside squeeze fuel on majors looks limited for now.
[Retail shorts loaded]: Hyperliquid shows retail traders heavier on shorts, so a sharp move up would punish short sellers more than longs.
“Positioning looks absurd and leaves room for a fast push toward 100,000 dollars,” said trader ChimpZoo.
Ether double bottom targets 3,900 dollars
ETH climbs toward key resistance on the daily chart.
[Double bottom setup]: Structure across Q4 2025 outlines a double bottom with a pattern target near 3,900 dollars, about 20 percent above spot.
[Trend trigger]: The 200 period EMA near 3,300 dollars blocks trend reversal, a daily close above this level signals strength for your long bias.
[Retail led buy flow]: CVD data shows steady spot and futures buying from smaller traders, while whales reduce exposure by roughly 40 million dollars.
“A firm daily close above 3,300 dollars and the 200 EMA confirms the bullish break toward 3,900 dollars,” said one analyst.
But what can you actually DO about the proclaimed ‘AI bubble’? Billionaires know an alternative…
Sure, if you held your stocks since the dotcom bubble, you would’ve been up—eventually. But three years after the dot-com bust the S&P 500 was still far down from its peak. So, how else can you invest when almost every market is tied to stocks?
Lo and behold, billionaires have an alternative way to diversify: allocate to a physical asset class that outpaced the S&P by 15% from 1995 to 2025, with almost no correlation to equities. It’s part of a massive global market, long leveraged by the ultra-wealthy (Bezos, Gates, Rockefellers etc).
