Bitcoin's price has surged following the Federal Reserve's decision to cut interest rates, causing losses for traders who had shorted the cryptocurrency. Over $154 million in short positions across all cryptocurrencies have been liquidated, with nearly $74 million in Bitcoin positions being closed. The rest of the crypto market, including Ethereum, has also experienced significant gains. The low interest rate environment, resulting from the Federal Reserve's actions, has led to increased interest in riskier investments such as cryptocurrencies and tech stocks. Bitcoin's price hit an all-time high earlier this year but has since struggled to reach that level again. Despite historically being a weak month for Bitcoin, the market has potential for bullish activity in October and November.
