$105M Ether shorts got ‘smoked,’ Eric Trump throws shade at bears
Eric Trump warned his 5.8 million followers to “stop betting” against Bitcoin and Ether as the price of Ether surpassed $4,000 for the first time in eight months.
Ether saw the largest short position wipeout of the day across all crypto assets on Friday as its price surpassed $4,000, with some analysts saying it could be setting the stage for a short squeeze.
The rally led to Eric Trump, son of US President Donald Trump, taking a jab at bearish traders.
$4.1K is now key for the “short squeeze,” says trader
“It puts a smile on my face to see ETH shorts get smoked today. Stop betting against BTC and ETH – you will be run over,” Trump said in an X post on Friday.
On Friday, approximately $105 million in Ether
short positions were liquidated, representing about 53% of the total $199.61 million in shorts liquidated from the entire crypto market, as Ether surpassed the $4,000 price level for the first time since December 2024, according to CoinGlass.
Ether’s price climbed as high as $4,060 over the day, representing a 4.6% increase over the past 24 hours, before retracing to $4,015 at the time of publication, according to Nansen.
Crypto trader Ash Crypto said the real test will be the $4,100 price level, which he called a “major resistance.”
“If ETH breaks $4100, it could trigger a short squeeze which will send ETH to $4400-$4500 in just a few hours,” Ash Crypto said.
