Bitcoin is currently stuck between $91,000 and $93,000, appearing as a dull sideways movement, but in reality, both bulls and bears are holding back for a big move.
Many people focus on the candlestick charts and find it boring, but the data already tells a full story. The liquidation chart doesn't lie—those stacked bars each represent positions that could be triggered and爆炸.
Breaking above $93,000? About $440 million of short positions on mainstream exchanges will be forced to liquidate simultaneously. This isn't a gentle rally; it's a scenario where bears are forced to close their positions, combined with funds chasing long positions, flooding into the market. When that happens, the price can surge wildly.
Conversely, falling below $91,000 isn't good either. Over $450 million of long positions will be liquidated, causing liquidity to evaporate instantly. At that moment, the market becomes as fragile as paper.
Here's the key point—what the liquidation chart shows isn't "this money must explode," but a warning: once the price hits these sensitive levels, market volatility will be far beyond expectations. The more exaggerated the bar heights, the denser the position stacking. When triggered, it will be a tidal wave of liquidity being swept up, not just a simple one-sided move.
This $91,000–$93,000 range is essentially a landmine zone for both bulls and bears. On the surface, it looks like a buffer zone, but in reality, it's a powder keg.
In terms of trading strategy, think carefully: chasing the market up or down will only fuel the volatility, and heavy positions will only bring trouble. The wise approach is to stay patient, wait until the trend is fully clear before acting. The market isn't absent; it's just choosing who will become the "sacrifice." Instead of obsessively watching the charts, better to lock onto this critical zone, listen for the "thunder" of liquidation, and then make your move.

The powder keg is about to explode, but it's hard to say who the sacrifice will be.

It's just a powder keg, after all, in the end, it's always the retail investors who get sacrificed. No one can escape.

It's the same old rhetoric again—liquidation charts, powder kegs, sacrifices... I've become numb to it.
Retail investors are just here to be the leeks for the big players, understand?

The metaphor of a powder keg is perfect; 91000-93000 is a meat grinder, and no one should expect to come out unscathed.

hypothesis: this 91k-93k consolidation is basically a byzantium generals problem dressed up as price action, ngl... the liquidation stacking? that's just oracle networks screaming at us through on-chain data. interestingly enough, both sides are essentially betting on whose consensus mechanism breaks first.

Powder keg, really need to be careful this time. If we can't break through 93000, the bears have won.

The term "powder keg" is spot on. I'm just waiting here for the breakout to see who kneels first.

91,000-93,000 is the slaughterhouse, don't ask me how I know.
