The world of crypto is an arena where every major incident reshapes market dynamics. Indeed, the colossal hack of $1.4 billion suffered by Bybit, one of the largest centralized exchanges, raises an important question: Can Ether still surpass $3,000 despite this shock? This hacking, the largest in the history of crypto, comes at a time when the Ethereum market wavers between hope and uncertainty. Bybit reacted by buying back over 106,000 ETH to compensate for its losses. Such a situation has created buying pressure that could reverse the asset’s bearish trend. However, will this massive buyback be enough to turn the tide, or does the threat of massive liquidations risk annihilating this rebound?
