Bitcoin Breaks Above $91,000 as Weekend Rally Triggers $130M in Short Liquidations – Blockonomi

Price stability above $91,000 reinforced short-term bullish structure following recent volatility

Bitcoin is trading at $91,383.48 on Sunday, extending its weekend rebound. The asset gained 1.62% over the past 24 hours as buyers remained active.

Trading volume stood at $30.79 billion during the session. On a seven-day basis, BTC is up 4.09%, signaling steady momentum despite thin weekend liquidity.

Bitcoin breaks above $91,000 as crypto markets remained the only liquid venue open during the weekend session.

Price action showed strong upward candles with limited retracement, reflecting aggressive short covering rather than gradual accumulation.

$130 million in short positions were liquidated within twelve hours. This forced buying accelerated price movement upward, especially under reduced weekend liquidity conditions. The broader crypto market followed Bitcoin’s advance, adding nearly $83 billion in total capitalization.

Traders noted that risk assets did not experience defensive selling, despite heightened geopolitical developments during the same period.

Bull Theory described the move as notable given the absence of traditional market confirmation. Bitcoin strength during closed equity markets suggested the geopolitical event was initially treated as supportive rather than disruptive.

US control over oil reserves valued near $17 trillion could support growth expectations and influence capital allocation.

Despite the strong breakout, market participants remained cautious. Weekend rallies have historically faded once equities reopen, placing emphasis on Bitcoin holding above $91,000 during regular trading hours.

Bitcoin breaks above $91,000 as institutional market structure continues evolving beneath surface volatility. K33 Research reported Bitcoin realized volatility near 2.24 percent during 2025, the lowest reading since 2012.

ETFs absorbed roughly 160,000 BTC across products. This steady accumulation occurred during periods of price stagnation, reinforcing the presence of longer-term allocators.

Fundamentals strengthened even as Bitcoin lagged other assets, such divergence historically preceded renewed price performance.

On-chain behavior supported this view. Long-term holders redistributed more than 1.6 million BTC from dormant wallets toward ETFs, funds, and corporate treasuries. This shift reduced abrupt sell pressure during drawdowns.

DeFi-related metrics also remained stable during the rally. DefiLlama data showed Bitcoin-linked total value locked near $7.09 billion, rising 1.45 percent within twenty four hours.

Network activity stayed consistent during low-liquidity hours. Active addresses approached 618,923, while net inflows exceeded $254,000, helping Bitcoin sustain levels above $91,000 without sharp reversals.
