Market Recovery

Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has managed to pull off a stunning V-shaped recovery, surging to an intraday high of $91,107.

The week started poorly, with the price of the leading coin briefly slipping below the $84,000 level due to hawkish central bank comments and increased regulatory pressure from major economies.

Commodity trader Peter Brandt predicted that BTC could crash to $40,000, while analyst Chris Burniske stated that the cryptocurrency was on track to plunge lower.

However, the bulls made a stunning comeback on Tuesday, paring all of the recent losses.

Institutional Adoption Drives Rally

A slew of bullish news is likely the reason why Bitcoin managed to surge sharply higher.

A major $10 trillion financial institution has enabled access for cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) after previously rejecting the sector. Industry leaders noted that “crypto is rapidly entering the mainstream.”

Additionally, a major bank’s private wealth management division, which manages over $2 trillion in assets, announced it will allow advisors to allocate 1-4% to Bitcoin starting in January.

Shorts Liquidated

Roughly $221 million worth of shorts has been wiped out over the past four hours alone, with short positions accounting for 93% of all liquidations over the past 24 hours.
