Bitcoin has officially shattered the "staredown" at
$70,000. As of Wednesday, March 4, 2026, BTC is trading at
$71,150 (approx. £54,850), having surged over 7% today to hit an intraday high of
$73,000. This isn't just a bounce; it’s a massive Short Squeeze. Bears who bet on a geopolitical collapse following the Iran strikes were forced to unwind their positions as the "wider regional war" failed to materialize, creating a vertical "God Candle" that sliced through a month of resistance.
This recovery is fueled by a massive
$1.45 billion net inflow into U.S. spot ETFs over the last five trading days, with BlackRock’s IBIT leading the charge via a
$322 million single-day intake yesterday.
