News Digest: The $2.5B Bitcoin Squeeze & The War Risk

Two big stories today, and they're pulling in opposite directions.

First, the mechanics: $2.5B in BTC shorts are at risk if we hit $72K. That's a massive liquidation magnet. Bears are leaning hard into the fear, but they're setting up for a potential squeeze. The community sentiment data (75%+ bullish) suggests retail isn't buying the doom.

Second, the macro: A former hedge fund manager is asking if Bitcoin is mispricing a prolonged Iran conflict. This is the existential fear underpinning the extreme F&G reading of 11. The market is wrestling with a technical setup screaming for a squeeze, against a macro backdrop that could justify more pain. Our system is watching for which narrative wins.
