hodlmodel (25)in #crypto • 6 years ago

So #bitcoin went up 3% at once. Reason? Take a look at these snapshots:

There were 35.941k btc shorts in 'before' shot (Aug 27, 11:22pm)

and dropped to 35.463k btc in 'after' shot (Aug 28, 1:50am)

so about 500 btc of shorts were closed!

When you close a short position you must buy underlying asset, which is $btc... Hence 🚀

Nice info, where did you get those charts from?

I think allowing the shorting of btc was the beginning of the end :-(
