Here's what you need to know:
Crypto market-cap hits $2.1 Trillion 🔥
The total market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies has soared past $2.1 trillion. BTC and ETH are completely destroying shorters by rocketing up.
According to data pulled from CoinGlass, an aggregator that gathers liquidation data from across the market, there has been over $142 million in Bitcoin shorts liquidated since yesterday. Talk about complete destruction 🤯
Ethereum’s bullish action has led to a similar wave of liquidated shorts, costing bearish traders more than $103 million over the same period.
What BTC did today to shorts was what Will Smith did to Chris Rock.
Smacked!

May buy a bit more this week. DCA is the way.
