#Gate广场五月交易分享 Bitcoin breaks through $81,500: Shorts cover, longs may follow closely
Bn cumulative liquidation data shows that Bitcoin breaking through $81,500 was driven by active short covering, and new long positions could become the next target.
Key summary: Short position liquidations accelerated sharply above $77,000. Forced liquidations trigger self-reinforcing buying pressure.
Historically, the cumulative liquidation of long-term assets far exceeds that of short-term assets.
Two scenarios: completely clearing short positions, or FOMO (Fear of Missing Out)!

Bitcoin's movement is described as active liquidity
The ability to quickly convert digital currencies or tokens into another asset or cash without affecting the price. Liquidity chasing is not just about simple upward trends. Building new long positions at the $80k to $81k level is the next risk.
