These shorts were left over from Bitcoin’s previous moves and were worth around 1,500 BTC. Analyst Skew noted that the previous bounce was shorted heavily, and those shorts have just been blown out.

In anticipation of the March 31 macroeconomic data print from the United States, traders were preparing for potential buying opportunities. The market was keenly watching the data print to gauge the potential impact on Bitcoin’s price. Meanwhile, the price is pumping, and if bulls run out of momentum before clearing $28k, things may get spicy. The market sentiment is currently positive, and investors are optimistic about the future of cryptocurrency.

As the world continues to grapple with the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, cryptocurrencies have emerged as a safe haven for investors. The cryptocurrency market has seen tremendous growth over the past year, and Bitcoin has been at the forefront of this growth. With its recent surge, Bitcoin is once again in the spotlight, and investors are closely watching its every move.
