Bitcoin has been subjected to some immense volatility throughout the past few days that ultimately allowed it to set fresh yearly highs earlier today.<\/p>\n

This marks a firm end to the bout of rangebound trading that it had been experiencing since early-May and has sparked a resurgence in calls from analysts regarding an imminent bull market.<\/p>\n

One notable result of the price action seen throughout the past 24-hours is a massive surge in the number of liquidations seen on major trading platforms like BitMEX.<\/p>\n

While looking towards fundamental data regarding what could be driving this movement, it also appears that BTC may have further fuel<\/a> to continue its climb higher.<\/p>\n

According to one analytics platform, previously sidelined stablecoins are now flooding into crypto exchanges.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin liquidates $300M in sell orders as volatility ramps up<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Yesterday afternoon, Bitcoin<\/a> was able to shatter the resistance that sat within the upper-$9,000 region.<\/p>\n

The break into the five-figure price region was followed by a brief consolidation period, but buyers were able to extend the benchmark cryptocurrency\u2019s momentum earlier this morning.<\/p>\n

After sending it as high as $11,000, bulls ceded some of their strength.<\/p>\n

The crypto has been caught within a consolidation phase around $10,800 ever since.<\/p>\n

Because Bitcoin had posted many rejections within the lower-to-mid $10,000 region over the past several months, many traders did not anticipate a clean break of its previous year-to-date highs of $10,500.<\/p>\n

Once this level was broken, a total of over $300 million in short positions were liquidated across all trading platforms.<\/p>\n

Data from analytics platform Coinalyze reveals this trend, also showing that nearly $200 million in shorts were liquidated yesterday, putting the two-day total at roughly $500 million.<\/p>\n

Over half of these liquidations came from BitMEX, which remains one of the most widely utilized margin trading platforms available to crypto traders.<\/p>\n

Will bears continue getting crushed by BTC\u2019s newfound volatility?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

One set of on-chain data suggests that Bitcoin bears are going to continue facing heightened liquidation risk in the near-term.<\/p>\n

Analytics platform Glassnode<\/a> explained in a recent tweet<\/a> that crypto exchanges just saw the largest inflows of Tether (USDT) in over eight months.<\/p>\n

This suggests that investors may soon convert their stablecoins into BTC and other digital assets to partake in the ongoing uptrend.<\/p>\n

\u201cAccording to our data, the last hour showed the largest inflow (24h MA) of USDT into exchanges in over 8 months.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The conversion of these stablecoins into Bitcoin could help fan the flames that are driving the cryptocurrency\u2019s price higher.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
