Bitcoin

<p>Bitcoin has been struggling to recover after falling from $64,669 last month and is now trading near $58,669. As the market remains highly volatile, analysts warn that <a href="https://coinpedia.org/price-analysis/bitcoin-price-prediction-this-week-bullish-and-bearish-scenarios/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin’s next liquidity move could trap both bulls and bears</a>.&nbsp;</p>
<p>While one group sees a <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/bitcoin-price-today-why-60000-level-could-be-btcs-6000-moment-from-2018/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">short squeeze pushing BTC toward $62,000</a>, others believe the market may first revisit the $50,000 liquidity zone before the next major rally begins.</p>
<h2 id="h-62k-holds-the-biggest-short-liquidation-target" class="wp-block-heading">$62K Holds the Biggest Short Liquidation Target</h2>
<p>Looking at the Bitcoin Exchange Liquidation Map, market analyst Seth believes <a href="https://coinpedia.org/price-prediction/bitcoin-price-prediction/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin Price</a> has already cleared one important liquidation zone. When Bitcoin recently fell to around $57,800, nearly $1.16 billion worth of leveraged long positions were liquidated.&nbsp;</p>
<p>According to Seth, that liquidity has now been “grabbed,” meaning that overleveraged longs trader taken out.</p>
<p>After the recent bounce to near $59K, Seth believes many traders are again trying to buy the bottom. The chart shows another $1.16 billion worth of leveraged long positions building around the $57.8K level, meaning traders are once again betting that Bitcoin has found a bottom.</p>

<p>Seth calls these traders “degens” because many are using extremely high leverage, sometimes as much as 100x.</p>
<p>However, Seth says the much bigger opportunity sits above the market. Around $62,000, there is nearly $4.14 billion in cumulative short liquidations. If Bitcoin climbs into that zone, short sellers may be forced to buy back their positions, pushing the price even higher.</p>

<p>Adding another perspective, crypto trader <a href="https://x.com/SantinoCripto/status/2072069075174588476" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SantinoCripto analyzed</a> Bitcoin’s 1-day liquidation heatmap and highlighted another key signal. According to him, the largest concentration of liquidity is currently sitting between $50,000 and $57,000, making this one of the most important price zones to watch in the coming weeks.</p>
<p>As per his analysis, markets often move toward areas where the most liquidity is concentrated, making it likely that <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/bitcoin-q3-2026-roadmap-july-bounce-brutal-august-then-the-final-low-near-39000/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin could revisit this zone over the next one to two months.&nbsp;</a></p>
<p>If that happens, the $50,000-$52,000 range could become the new bear market floor.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Supporting this view, crypto analyst Ali Martinez noted that a drop to $50,000 would liquidate nearly $70 million worth of long positions, which could increase selling pressure before the market finds a stronger bottom.</p>

<p>Despite the short-term uncertainty, historical data remains positive. Looking at the Bitcoin <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/today" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">monthly return</a> chart, BTC has finished July in positive 9 out of the past 13 years, with an average monthly return of around 7%.</p>
<p>Crypto researcher Fleh remains bullish, saying Bitcoin’s monthly Binance liquidation heatmap shows significant short liquidity above current prices. One major cluster sits near $67,645, containing roughly $247 million in liquidation leverage and about $2.26 billion in cumulative short liquidations.</p>

<p>Based on that liquidity, Fleh believes Bitcoin could first recover toward $75,000 before any larger correction has a chance to develop.</p>
