Source: TradingView<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After the peak reached on Bitcoin Pizza Day (May 22), the primary cryptocurrency started to lose some ground, which culminated precisely a month later with a price dump to $98,000 during the Iran-Israel war.<\/p>\n<p>However, the bulls managed to contain the losses, and BTC quickly topped $100,000. In fact, the asset hasn\u2019t traded within a five-digit price territory in over two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>July started with a slight stagnation, though, as bitcoin remained stuck between $105,000 and $110,000. However, the cryptocurrency went on the offensive hard in the past few hours, breaking above the upper boundary and surging to a fresh all-time high at exactly $112,000 (on Bitstamp and many other exchanges) minutes ago.<\/p>\n<p>Among the possible reasons behind today\u2019s surge came a few hours ago when US President Trump <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-price-rises-above-109k-as-trump-calls-for-biggest-interest-rate-cut-in-history\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">urged<\/a> the Federal Reserve to cut the rates by 300bps. Such a potential historic move is expected to benefit riskier assets like BTC and crypto.<\/p>\n<p>Many altcoins have <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/xrp-prices-hit-7-week-peak-as-this-crucial-metric-suggests-further-gains\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">followed suit<\/a> on the way north, charting gains of close to 10%. ETH, for example, has risen by more than 6% since this time yesterday and trades close to $2,800.<\/p>\n<p>This volatility has harmed over-leveraged traders, resulting in more than $480 million in daily liquidations. The number of wrecked traders sits at 100,000, according to CoinGlass, most of which were from shorts.<\/p>\n<p>One particular position stands out as the single-largest liquidation; it happened on HTX and was worth over $51 million.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_403496\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-403496\" style=\"width: 1367px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-09-230605.png\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-403496\" src=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Screenshot-2025-07-09-230605.png\" alt=\"Liquidation Heat Map.
