As the price of Bitcoin (BTC) and other major tokens declined by around 5-6% over the past 24 hours, over $2.27 billion worth of crypto futures were liquidated, according to analytics platform Bybt.
At press time, Bitcoin is trading at around $56,231, down 6.34% on the day, according to data from CoinMarketCap, dropping from highs of roughly $60,700 in the last 24 hours.
Ethereum fared similarly, slipping to $1,781, down around 5% over the past day. Binance Coin ($256, -5.03%), Cardano ($1.03, -4.58%), and Polkadot ($35.06, -4.82%) are also following the wider downtrend in the crypto market.
When markets are experiencing dips or surges, overleveraged trading positions are liquidated automatically by exchanges when traders can no longer fulfill their margin requirements. In essence, they are trading with funds borrowed from third parties, allowing them to use more money than they necessarily have.
Notably, $1.97 billion worth of positions that were liquidated during the course of the latest dip were long, meaning that traders bet on the price of an asset going up.
On the other hand, only $112 million worth of short positions got liquidated—which were betting on cryptos’ decline.
Bitcoin and Ethereum have lost billions in their market capitalizations after the past record-breaking weekend, with the global market cap of all cryptocurrencies slipping from $1.82 trillion over the weekend to $1.71 trillion today, a decline of roughly $1.2 billion.
Spark, an on-chain capital allocator embedded in the recently rebranded Sky, formerly MakerDAO, ecosystem, says it has committed an additional $1 billion to tokenized real-world assets (RWAs), specifically those backed by U.S. Treasury securities. The expansion brings Spark’s total value locked (TVL) to $2.4 billion, making it the leading on-chain allocator, per DeFiLlama data. The allocation follows the conclusion of Spark’s "Tokenization Grand Prix," a months-long initiative that awarded capi...
Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffet announced plans over the weekend to step down at the end of the year, after turning his company into one of the world’s most profitable firms—with a 5,500,000% return on investment since he took the helm. But he never cottoned to Bitcoin, although his stance about the technology behind digital assets softened over time. The 94-year-old Buffett, who made his surprise announcement at Berkshire Hathaway’s annual shareholder meeting, maintained that Bitcoin wou...
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday stopped short of giving the green light to a new crypto exchange-traded fund that would give investors exposure to Litecoin. The Wall Street regulator instead decided to delay giving an answer to the proposed product—which is a perfectly normal step for such applications. Nashville, Tennessee-based Canary Capital filed the paperwork in October for the Canary Litecoin ETF. The SEC currently has dozens of altcoin ETF applications to consider f...
