The crypto market has witnessed a massive shakeout, with over $875 million in leveraged positions liquidated within the past 24 hours, as Bitcoin dipped below the critical $100,000 mark and market-wide panic intensified.
The liquidation wave has wiped out thousands of long positions across major exchanges including Binance, OKX, Bybit, and Coinbase—highlighting the risks of overleveraging in a highly volatile macro environment.
What Triggered the Crash?
A combination of factors contributed to the sharp sell-off:
-
Bitcoin’s drop below $100,000, a psychologically significant level that triggered automatic liquidations.
-
Ongoing geopolitical tensions, especially escalating conflict between Iran and Israel, causing investors to shift toward safe-haven assets.
-
Aggressive margin trading by retail and institutional traders during the recent bull run.
-
Broad altcoin weakness, with Ethereum, Solana, and meme coins like DOGE and PEPE seeing 10–25% losses in a single day.
“These liquidations show how quickly sentiment can turn in crypto,” said [Insert Analyst Name], market strategist at CentBit.Online. “Traders are learning the hard way that volatility is a double-edged sword.”
By the Numbers
-
Bitcoin (BTC): Fell as low as $98,400
-
Ethereum (ETH): Dropped under $4,900
-
Solana (SOL): Down 11%
-
Top 100 Altcoins: Most down between 8% and 20%
-
$875M Liquidated: 70% of which were long positions
According to data from Coinglass, the single largest liquidation order occurred on Binance and involved over $9 million worth of BTC.
What This Means for Bangladeshi Investors
Bangladeshi traders, many of whom use global exchanges via VPNs or peer platforms, are directly impacted by these large-scale liquidation events. Losses are often amplified due to:
-
Lack of trading education
-
Use of high leverage (10x–100x)
-
Failure to set stop-losses or manage risk
“This is a learning moment for Bangladeshi crypto traders,” said [Insert Your Name], founder of CentBit.Online. “Smart investing is about risk control, not gambling with leverage during volatility.”
Next Steps: What Should Investors Do?
-
Re-evaluate portfolio allocations
-
Avoid excessive leverage in uncertain markets
-
Use cold wallets to safeguard assets
-
Stay updated on geopolitical events that influence global sentiment
Many analysts suggest that while this is a painful correction, it may create buying opportunities for disciplined investors once markets stabilize.
Conclusion
With over $875 million wiped out in just 24 hours, the latest crypto liquidation wave is a stark reminder of the market’s volatility and the importance of risk management. As the dust settles, experienced investors will be watching closely for the next support levels and potential recovery signs.
