Bitcoin’s Meteoric Rise: The Untold Risks Lurking in the Shadows
Bitcoin blasts past skeptics—again—but don’t pop the champagne just yet.
The euphoria trap
Every rally feels like vindication until the leverage gets liquidated. Retail FOMO meets institutional froth—sound familiar?
Regulatory landmines ahead
Central bankers aren’t sending congratulatory tweets. They’re drafting frameworks to ‘protect’ you from your own gains.
Infrastructure stress test
Congestion. Gas wars. Exchange outages. The network groans under its own success—while VC-funded ‘scalability’ projects cash checks.
Remember: Wall Street only loves volatility when they’re the house. Buckle up.
Record-Breaking Open Positions on Bitcoin
According to data from CryptoQuant, the open position volume of Binance‘s futures market has escalated to $14.1 billion, marking an all-time high. This underscores the inflow of new capital into the market, with both individual and institutional investors turning to Leveraged transactions, thereby accelerating the uptrend. Historical examples indicate that such explosive growth can propel prices even higher in the short term.

Meanwhile, the estimated leverage ratio on Binance reaching 0.204 signifies a level of overheating not observed since August 2023. Although high leverage amplifies gains, a potential sell-off could trigger a chain of liquidations, pulling the price down just as swiftly. Investors should be prepared for quick profit-taking or stop-loss triggers in this “double-edged sword” scenario, which could entail a domino effect.
No Alarms from TBSR Indicator
CryptoQuant’s Taker Buy/Sell Ratio (TBSR) indicator climbing to 1.14 reveals a dominance of buyers not seen in a long while. While this appetite supports short-term gains, it also increases the risk of market peaks, as a shift in direction could intensify the selling pressure amongst overly optimistic investors.
While daily charts show MACD and AO remaining positive, RSI climbing to 78 indicates an overbought signal. The CMF’s drop from 0.23 suggests a slowdown in capital inflow. In the event of a pullback, critical supports to monitor include $120,000, $116,000, and $110,000. Failure to hold these levels could lead to a deepening correction.
