These elements, he said, have created a self-reinforcing cycle of demand and upward price pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Perfumo added:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWith equities healing, ETF inflows running back at a record pace, and a growing roster of public corporations hovering up supply, the feedback loop that carried BTC past $100k remains intact. Unless that trifecta of tailwinds falters, dip-buyers are likely to set the tone and today\u2019s record print is evidence of that.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>Bitcoins Over $500 million liquidated<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin\u2019s rapid climb has triggered a wave of liquidations across the crypto derivatives market.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past 24 hours, more than 120,000 traders lost their positions, totaling nearly $500 million in liquidated assets. The single largest loss was a $6.36 million BTCUSD position on Bybit.<\/p>\n<p>CoinGlass <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/LiquidationData\">data<\/a> showed that traders who bet against Bitcoin\u2019s rise took the biggest hit, with short positions accounting for almost $300 million in losses. Long positions saw approximately $193 million wiped out.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin trades comprised most of the liquidations, with $227 million lost. Of this amount, $173 million was from short traders and $53 million from long traders.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/ethereum\/\">Ethereum<\/a> followed with over $122 million in liquidations, while Solana and Dogecoin recorded $14.5 million and $13.9 million, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>This liquidation wave illustrates the risks leveraged traders face during rapid market moves, particularly in a bullish environment driven by strong fundamentals and institutional demand.<\/p>\n<h6>Mentioned in this article<\/h6>\n<div>\n<h5>Latest <span>Bitcoin<\/span> Stories<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<header>\n<h5>Press Releases<\/h5>\n<\/header>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> Oluwapelumi Adejumo <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/bitcoin-price-reaches-new-ath-above-111000-as-institutional-interest-peaks\/\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin price reaches new ATH above $111,000 as institutional interest peaks Oluwapelumi Adejumo \u00b7 2 months ago \u00b7 2 min read This Bitcoin rally places every holder in profit as institutional demand soars. 2 min read Updated: May. 22, 2025 at 10:54 am UTC Cover art\/illustration via CryptoSlate.
