Crypto liquidations recently jumped to more than $480 million, with short traders affected the most due to market recovery.

Key Notes

  • The broader crypto market suffered a total liquidation of $481.82 million in 24 hours.
  • Bitcoin liquidation was pegged at $237.38 million, while Ethereum's came in at $97.5 million.
  • The prices of these crypto assets have recovered significantly within the last 24 hours.

CoinGlass liquidation heatmap shows that about 122,371 traders were liquidated within the last 24 hours. Their total liquidations summed up to $481.82 million, with Bitcoin BTC $93 088 24h volatility: 1.1% Market cap: $1.86 T Vol. 24h: $83.42 B taking the largest blow.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Prices Shiwn Signs of Recovery

Of the $481.82 million liquidated in the crypto market, Bitcoin traders suffered a massive loss of $237.38 million.

This liquidation spotlights mostly short traders who are at the extreme losing end, suffering a total BTC liquidation of $220.74 million. Long traders were only mildly affected to the tune of $16.63 million.

Even privacy-centric coin Zcash ZEC $369.1 24h volatility: 7.1% Market cap: $5.87 B Vol. 24h: $1.60 B , which has been trending because of the short-term drop in its price , featured in the liquidation heatmap.
