【Crypto World】The market is shrouded in panic, but not all altcoins are equally fragile. On the contrary, some projects are actually lurking with significant short-selling risks.
Take Solana as an example. Once it surges to $147, the short liquidation scale could directly surpass $1 billion. The support behind this comes from continuous ETF inflows, along with the solid price floor at $130.
The story of Cardano is also not simple. At the $0.45 level, shorts need to be wary of liquidation pressures in the $50 million range. The recent strong performance of the Midnight project has become an important driver for ADA’s upward movement.
There are also counterexamples. Meme coins like PIPPIN, due to higher token concentration, face risks from the long side. If the price falls below $0.30, it could trigger over $9 million in long liquidations.
This reminds us that in highly volatile markets, liquidation risks are everywhere—sometimes panic itself presents a reverse opportunity.

Shorts should really fear Sol, holding firm at $130... But over at PIPPIN, it's actually a trap for the bulls; need to be careful watching it.

This move by SOL is quite interesting, with 1 billion in liquidation waiting for the shorts. That's why I'm still holding.
ADA at 0.45 is really a hurdle. The Midnight project is indeed impressive.
I don't touch Pippin; meme coins are too greedy and tend to lead to losses.

SOL this wave is really a bear trap. Once it breaks 147 dollars, blood will flow in rivers... But to be honest, the ETF continuously pouring in money feels quite suspicious.
I see ADA as even more dangerous. 0.45 is really a critical point. Midnight's push feels a bit weak, and the momentum is concerning.
As for PIPPIN and other meme coins, forget it. The crypto "scalper's razor," high concentration is a ticking time bomb. I wouldn't be surprised if it drops below 0.30.
The liquidation data looks fierce, but don't forget that the market's favorite is always the opposite harvest. Today’s bear liquidators, tomorrow they could become the bulls' mid-trade snack.

Can the surge to 147 in SOL really trigger a liquidation of 1 billion? Then the shorts must buy the dip heavily... Hold firmly at the 130 level.

The short sellers are about to be taught a lesson. If SOL hits 147, it will clear 1 billion in liquidation? Are they really going to be wiped out in one round?

Sol hitting 147 to trigger a 1 billion short squeeze? This is the real short trap.
