Bitcoin Eyes $115K Breakout with ETF Inflows and Liquidation Surge

• ETF inflows suggest growing institutional confidence in Bitcoin’s price direction.
• Short positions risk liquidation as Bitcoin approaches critical breakout zone.

Bitcoin continues to attract attention as bullish signals emerge across technical charts, ETF inflows, and liquidation trends. Prominent Crypto analyst CryptoKaleo noted a sustained price climb from late April through early June, with a consolidation phase in between. 

Kaleo marked this sideways action with a green ellipse, interpreting it as accumulation ahead of a breakout. After this period, Bitcoin surged above key resistance levels in a parabolic rally.

Kaleo commented that “dips are gifts,” suggesting investors should treat minor retracements as buying opportunities.

His analysis emphasizes growing bullish momentum, reinforcing his stance that Bitcoin remains in a strong growth trend. He urged traders to “be more bullish,” suggesting confidence in the ongoing rally.

Bitcoin ETFs Show Strength Amid Market Optimism

SoSoValue data revealed robust market activity in Bitcoin ETFs. Total net assets across all Bitcoin ETFs reached $131.85 billion, representing 6.09% of Bitcoin’s total market cap. Daily net inflows stood at $164.57 million, and cumulative inflows hit $45.22 billion. The total daily traded volume reached $2.41 billion, reflecting increased investor participation.

BlackRock’s IBIT, listed on NASDAQ, led with $131.01 million in daily inflows and $72.55 billion in net assets. Fidelity’s FBTC followed with $11.87 million in inflows and $21.63 billion in assets. Grayscale’s GBTC, despite holding $20.14 billion, posted cumulative outflows totalling $23.25 billion. 

Other funds, including Ark Invest’s ARKB and BTC ETF, showed more moderate activity. Despite slight price declines of around -1.7% across all ETFs, the inflow volume signals continued institutional interest.

Short Liquidation Risk Mounts Near $115K

According to exchange data, a major short squeeze could unfold if Bitcoin reaches $115,000. Liquidation charts show a growing gap between long and short leverage positions. As of the current price level of $107,552, short liquidations are climbing sharply. The green trend line, representing cumulative short liquidations, rises steeply past the $111,000 level.

By contrast, long liquidations have dropped, indicating bullish conviction among leveraged positions. Exchange data from Binance, OKX, and Bybit shows increasing liquidation volumes, with Bybit leading the spikes. Binance and OKX follow with steady contributions. 

If Bitcoin pushes beyond $115,000, analysts expect a liquidation cascade could follow, accelerating the upward move. The data suggests bears are increasingly vulnerable.
