Ethereum Tops $2,500 as $48.25M in ETH Positions Get Liquidated
- —ETH short liquidations hit $38.17 million, 3.8x the $10.07 million in longs
- —ETH trades at $2,561 after a 24-hour range of $2,495.93 to $2,567.88
- —Perpetual futures open interest on Ethereum stands at $44.84 billion
- —Bitcoin near $84,000 saw $46.8 million in liquidations, second only to ETH
Why it matters: The short squeeze lifted ETH, but gains may fade without spot demand; $2,500 and $2,568 are the levels to watch.
