Bitcoin Liquidation Heatmap Signals Potential Short Squeeze

Bitcoin’s liquidation heatmap is heating up as heavy upside liquidity clusters emerge above the current price. Around $66,541, nearly $69.85 million in leveraged positions are at risk of being wiped out. The chart shows dense yellow bands stacked overhead, indicating significant short exposure. If Bitcoin delivers a strong upward move, it could trigger a rapid liquidation cascade, forcing short sellers to close positions and potentially accelerating bullish momentum in the near term.
