According to data from CoinMarketCap,<\/a> Bitcoin (BTC) has maintained its upward price trajectory<\/a> over the last day, gaining by 4.04% to briefly trade above the $48,000 mark. As BTC now hovers around the $47,100 price zone, investors and market experts remain highly speculative about the token\u2019s next action. On that note, popular analyst Ali Martinez has called a major prediction that could spell weighty losses for many investors.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Liquidity Hunters Target $45,810 In Potential Bitcoin Price Manipulation Plot\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In an X post on Friday<\/a>, Martinez predicted an incoming dip in Bitcoin\u2019s price driven by a planned liquidation. Using data from the cryptocurrency futures trading platform, CoinGlass, the analyst stated the Bitcoin liquidation heatmap indicated that there is potential strategic liquidation in play.<\/p>\n

According to the #Bitcoin<\/a> liquidation heatmap, there\u2019s a potential strategy unfolding where liquidity hunters could drive the price of $BTC<\/a> down to $45,810. This move is aimed at triggering liquidations amounting to $54.73 million! pic.twitter.com\/monFlZmvQ6<\/a><\/p>\n

Martinez stated that liquidity hunters in the BTC market could be looking to push the token\u2019s price as low as $45,810 for personal benefits. For context, liquidity hunters are traders or investors who actively seek opportunities in the financial markets to exploit changes in liquidity.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This set of market players often targets specific price levels where there is a concentration of stop-loss orders or where market liquidity is expected to be thin. By triggering liquidations or capitalizing on price movements, liquidity hunters aim to profit from short-term market inefficiencies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to Martinez, the liquidity hunters in the BTC market are currently looking to induce an estimated 3% decline in the token\u2019s price. While this change may seem minimal, it represents an astounding $54.73 million in liquidations. Based on these numbers, BTC traders and investors should be wary of potentially significant losses in the coming days.\u00a0<\/p>\n

BTC Price Overview\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The premier cryptocurrency has recently taken flight, gaining by 8.6% in the last two days after a flat period of consolidation stretching to the beginning of February.\u00a0Interestingly, the asset\u2019s pathway to higher gains appears more confident with recent developments in the Bitcoin spot ETF market, which recorded a total net flow of $403 million on February 8 \u2013 the highest value of that metric since January 17.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, Bitcoin trades at $47,238, with a 0.26% gain in the last hour. Meanwhile, the coin\u2019s daily trading volume has soared by 56.33% and is now valued at $39.42 billion. In addition, BTC maintains its top spot in the crypto market with a total market cap of $924.67 billion.\u00a0<\/p>\n
