CryptoQuant’s BorisD Says Bitcoin’s Rise Was Driven by Binance Short Liquidations

ChainCatcher reported that CryptoQuant analyst BorisD said Bitcoin’s latest climb was not mainly driven by spot buying. Instead, he pointed to forced buying from concentrated short liquidations in Binance’s futures market. He said Binance’s short squeeze reading reached 6.94 this week, above 5.38 in November 2024 and the highest since then. BorisD also warned that if spot demand does not continue to absorb the move, a futures-led rebound could still face a pullback once momentum fades.
