📊 Over $458M in crypto positions got wiped out as short sellers rushed to cover their bets. Bitcoin just bulldozed through the $95K level, triggering a wave of forced liquidations across derivatives markets. The momentum caught a lot of traders off-guard—those betting against BTC paid the price as the rally intensified. Classic squeeze setup: shorts piling in too heavy, then momentum flips hard. This kind of volatility is why position sizing matters.

It's the familiar feeling again, the shorts are being liquidated once more and once more, this time missing out on the 458M small change. --- Laughing as I finish this trade, my friends are still studying the candlestick charts. I've already moved my wallet back home. --- See? This is what happens when you go all-in. If you don't control your position well, no matter how good the coin is, it won't save you. --- The bulls take a plane to heaven, the bears take the elevator to hell. I'm just watching the show on the basement level. --- 95K is just a starter, the real big show is still to come. Everyone, fasten your seatbelts. --- Every time such market conditions occur, a group of "professional bears" appear. After being liquidated, they learn to think rationally. Impressive. --- I've heard the term position sizing a thousand times, but I still can't resist when a crazy market wave clears things up for you.

Another wave of shorts evaporated, 458 million just disappeared. This is the consequence of disrespecting BTC.

458 million liquidation again, it's time for those retail investors who don't watch on-chain flows to pay their tuition.

The short position was liquidated again. This is the consequence of not respecting Bitcoin.

The one who is out of position watching this wave of market really finds it amazing, 458M liquidation made me exclaim, "This person is really experienced."

Ha, these naked空 kids got cut again? I saw this show ten years ago, and it's always the same story, brother. $458M is not enough for an appetizer; the real big show is at the liquidation price. You guys watch it slowly. Position size and that broken stuff, saying it a thousand times is useless. You have to lose one or two times yourself to wake up.
