CPI drops, and BTC instantly pulls the 'fakeout' card – rips to $79k like a kid who just got his candy. ETH? Up 8% to $2,660. Result: over $250M in shorts turned to dust in one hour. Classic move – shake the weak, then blast off. If you were short, you got exactly what you deserved.
▪️ Act 1: CPI matches forecasts – and BTC dumps to $76k. Perfect trap for every bear who thought they were smart.
▪️ Act 2: BTC reverses hard, climbs from $76k to $79k in minutes. ETH follows with a 5% hourly bomb – guess who got short there?
▪️ Act 3: $250M+ in shorts liquidated. If you were short ETH under $2,500, say hello to your margin call.
▪️ ETH hit its highest since late January – $2,660. Bearish narrative? Dead for now. But we all know how this movie ends.
📊 Total shorts liquidated:

~$79k📊 ETH high:
$2,660Textbook liquidity grab. They shake out the longs with that fake dip, then reverse hard to hunt shorts. Next stop? $80k if momentum holds. But don't chase – these moves retrace just as fast. Keep your stop tight or enjoy your ramen diet.
🔮 Either this is the start of a real rally, or just another juicy trap to liquidate the next batch of fomo buyers. My money's on trap – but I'm always wrong.
