$515 million in crypto positions liquidated in 24 hours

  • Liquidations over 24 hours totaled $515 million
  • The heaviest load fell on BTC and ETH futures
  • Liquidations were processed by Binance, Hyperliquid, OKX and Bybit
  • For comparison: $571 million was liquidated on September 16 after the CLARITY Act failed
Why it matters: The liquidation spike signals excessive leverage and the risk of sharp price moves on the slightest negative trigger.
