Comparative news, according to TradingBeats (formerly Hyperinsight) monitoring, as HYPE tokens continued to reach record highs today, the largest HYPE bulls on the chain held a 5-times leverage of 1.38 million HYPE multi-order profits of about US$53.26 million. The address has now paid US$4.9 million in capital fees for this position. On October 23, 2025, about 5 hours before Robinhood announced the launch of HYPE stock, the address opened multiple HYPE orders with about 40 million US dollars and 5 times leverage. Since the time point of entry into the heavy position was too accurate, the community suspected that there was undisclosed information, so it is also known as the HYPE coin insider whale.

Analysis: This round of BTC's rise is accompanied by a decline in OI, and spot demand is showing for the first time

Comparing news, on-chain data analyst Murphy wrote that this round of BTC's rise was “a bit different”: the scale of futures liquidation reached a record, but unclosed positions (OI) declined at the same time. The price increase was mainly driven by short stop-loss or liquidated purchases to close positions. It was a liquidated stock position rather than a net exposure to newly opened leveraged positions. If it is driven only by liquidation, the price often falls back after being inserted; after this increase, the price stagnates, indicating that other spot funds have taken over. Murphy pointed out that if contract bulls lead, OI usually rises and rates rise, but this round of OI has almost completely declined, and no new leverage has entered the market on a large scale. The exchange's spot relative volume (SRV) reached 2.94 from August 19 to 20, which is about 3 times the average for nearly 30 days. Similar volumes in the past two years have mostly occurred during a downturn or a bull market. This is different from the situation where leverage was dominated by the rebound to about 96,000 US dollars in January and the rebound to about 82,000 US dollars in May. He stressed that spot demand is only the first potential sign since entering a bear market. Combined with price challenges to the short-term holder cost line (STH-RP) and the sellers' exhaustion index entering an extreme zone, it is not enough to determine a trend reversal.

Analyst: Bitcoin's rise in this round is more than being squeezed by bears; demand for spot and ETF capital is improving

Comparing news, Bitcoin surpassed $7.3 million for the first time since June. The day before, the crypto market saw a record $2.75 billion in Bitcoin short positions being liquidated, and the bear squeeze further accelerated this round of gains. Analysts said that this round of the market is not entirely driven by bears' recovery. Demand for spot and ETF funding is improving, while the decline in US long-term treasury bond yields and the crypto regulatory environment is becoming clear, which also provides support for the market rebound. Gideon Hyams, co-founder of STS Digital, said that bear squeeze can start the market, but it is difficult to continue the trend alone. There are also factors behind this round of growth, such as the return of ETF funds, declining long-term yields, and a clearer US crypto regulatory path. The key to the market is whether Bitcoin can stand above the fluctuation range previously formed since June. Nicolai Søndergaard, senior research analyst at Nansen, believes that the bears' recovery has accelerated the breakthrough, but it is not the only reason for the rise in the market. Currently, Bitcoin's technical aspects have been improved, and it has received stronger spot and ETF demand support. However, as the bear squeeze is basically over and leveraged long positions increase, whether Bitcoin can continue to hold steady at $70,000 will depend on whether spot buying can continue. CryptoQuant founder Ki Young Ju said that Bitcoin spot and perpetual contract demand simultaneously turned positive for the first time since the record high in October 2025. He believes that the current scale of demand is still small, but if this trend continues for a month, it is reasonable to assume that the bear market is over and a new bull market cycle is starting. At the same time, market transaction activity has clearly rebounded. Paul Howard, senior director of Wincent, said that trading volume in the past 24 hours has increased about 5 times from the yearly low set last weekend. Previously, the market was in an environment of low volatility and low liquidity, and any favorable news could be amplified and push prices to fluctuate greatly. As of press time, Bitcoin reported around $7.33 million. Analysts believe that $70,000 is an important support level for this round of the market. If it continues to stabilize, the market is expected to evolve further towards a trending upward trend; if it falls back to around $69,700 to $69,000, it may just be a normal step back to the breakthrough.

Bitcoin's rebound may just be a blood sacrifice for bears after bursting $1.1 billion overnight

Bitcoin's rebound may just be a blood sacrifice for bears after bursting $1.1 billion overnight

Author: Shenchao TechFlow Original title: BTC's largest single-day short liquidation in history: $1.1 billion of short funds evaporated overnight, but shouting back is too early for every escape from death, requiring empty sacrifices. Bitcoin's intraday volume skyrocketed last night, once approaching the $70,000 mark. While the investment community is full of buoyancy, what you might not know is that last night was the largest single-day short liquidation in crypto history. The network's single-day bears rallied over 1.1 billion US dollars, breaking historical records in a fractured manner. The $1.1 billion bears were tightened overnight, breaking the crypto history record. On the night of August 19, BTC started around $64,000 and rose about 7% in an hour, reaching an intraday high of $69,970, just one step away from the 70,000 mark. This is the highest price since early June and the biggest one-day increase since March. The sharp rise was accompanied by blood washing in the contract market. According to public contract data, the entire network closed out about US$1,345 million in the past 24 hours, involving 105,000 traders, of which short orders were about US$1,191 million, and the long ones were only 153 million. In the most intense hour, the entire network sold out $1,194 million, with bears accounting for 93.5%. By currency type, Bitcoin contract bears were liquidated by about $662 million in 24 hours, while Ethereum bears were about $366 million. Leveraged positions that bet on falling were uprooted almost at the same time. Several whale positions on Hyperliquid totaling nearly $200 million (large highly leveraged companies) have also been completely liquidated. The liquidation itself will speed up the market. A strong bearish position means being forced to buy back up. The higher the price, the more explosive the higher the higher the higher the higher the higher the higher the higher the higher the price, forming a self-reinforcing feedback loop. At the same time, judging from multiple data sources, this is the largest Bitcoin shorting settlement in a single day. The White House summit was only the trigger; the catalyst came from the bond market attributing the surge to the combined benefits of the two. One is the message side. On August 19, Trump met with crypto industry executives such as Coinbase, Kraken's parent company Payward, and Blockchain.com at the White House, and the market's optimism about the shift in regulation heats up. The other one is lower level. On the same day, the US Treasury Department announced a direct doubling of the liquidity support for long-term treasury bond repurchases, raising the upper limit of a single operation from 2 billion US dollars to at least 4 billion US dollars, effective September 9. In the crypto community's view, this is a more tangible sign than the summit: macro liquidity is loosening in the direction of risky assets. The data also confirms institutional buying. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs had a net inflow of $297.6 million on Monday and another $189 million on Tuesday; funding rates have risen to a 20-month high. The bulls are crowded, and the bears are even more crowded. Once the price starts, a strong pedal will automatically be relayed. The last big bear liquidation dates back to 5.19, and old chives must remember “5.19” in May 2021: China clearly prohibited financial institutions and payment institutions from carrying out virtual currency-related business. Amidst the panic, Bitcoin hit more than 40,000 US dollars to around 30,000 US dollars in one day, and the entire network closed out about 7 billion US dollars in 24 hours, setting a historical record at the time. The 5.19 collapse liquidated bulls, and about $7.56 billion in long leveraged positions were instantly washed away. However, over the next few days, in the midst of panic, a large number of traders frantically leveraged at the bottom to chase the sky. As a result, there was an extremely violent retaliatory backlash. According to K33 Research quoting Coinglass data, short positions of approximately $757 million in a single day were instantly washed away, making it the largest day for BTC perpetual short settlements in history. And that record was broken just yesterday. After the liquidation of top bears, the market is often polished for a few weeks, and the liquidation of top bears is often a sign that the mid-term phased bottom has been completely consolidated. Positions are cleared after deleveraging, and macro-liquidity is transferred to encryption, and it takes weeks of cold washing and energy in the middle. Will this time be the same? Bitcoin is currently around $69,200, and the 24-hour increase narrowed to 7.6% (as of the morning of August 20). Sentiment indicators are still hesitating: the fear and greed index is 46, which is still in the fear zone; the probability that Bitcoin will reach 70,000 this month on the Polymarket has jumped to about 70% from before the surge. Axel Rudolph, IG's chief technical analyst, observes: Bitcoin is moving towards $70,000, driven by bears' recovery, indicating that buyers are...
