Liquidation

Liquidation occurs when a trader’s collateral is no longer sufficient to cover their leveraged position’s losses, triggering an automated forced closure by the exchange's liquidation engine. It is a critical risk-management mechanism that ensures the solvency of lending protocols and derivative platforms. In 2026, the focus has moved toward MEV-resistant liquidation models that protect users from predatory "cascades." This tag provides essential information on maintenance margins, health factors, and how to avoid liquidation in high-volatility environments.

Bitcoin Traders Pile Into Futures, Is A Rebound Incoming?

The post Bitcoin Traders Pile Into Futures, Is A Rebound Incoming? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key takeaways: Bitcoin futures demand continues rising despite the recent price weakness, indicating sustained trader engagement. The put options maintained a premium over calls, reflecting persistent bearish sentiment among investors. Bitcoin (BTC) traded down to $109,400 on Monday, its lowest level in more than six weeks. The correction followed an $11 billion sale by a 5-year dormant whale that had been dormant for 5 years, with proceeds rotating into Ether (ETH) spot and futures on decentralized exchange Hyperliquid. Despite the price decline, demand for Bitcoin futures surged to an all-time high, prompting traders to ask whether $120,000 is the next logical step. Bitcoin futures open interest, BTC. Source: CoinGlass Bitcoin futures open interest climbed to an all-time high of BTC 762,700 on Monday, up 13% from two weeks earlier. The stronger demand for leveraged positions shows traders are not abandoning the market despite a 10% price drop since Bitcoin’s all-time high on Aug. 14. While this is a positive indicator, the $85 billion in futures open interest does not necessarily reflect optimism, since longs (buyers) and shorts (sellers) are always matched. If bulls lean too heavily on leverage, a dip below $110,000 could trigger cascading liquidations. Bitcoin 2-month futures annualized premium. Source: Laevitas.ch The Bitcoin futures premium is currently at a neutral 8%, up from 6% the previous week. Notably, the metric has not remained above the 10% neutral threshold for more than six months, meaning even the $124,176 all-time high failed to instill broad bullishness. Leverage shakeout highlights liquidity but sparks suspicion The recent decline blindsided overleveraged traders, leading to $284 million in liquidations of long positions, according to CoinGlass data. The event showed that Bitcoin maintains deep liquidity even on weekends, but the speed of execution raised suspicions, given that the seller had held the position for years.…

$110,800 Is Bitcoin’s New Key Defense Line: Glassnode

The post $110,800 Is Bitcoin’s New Key Defense Line: Glassnode appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Bitcoin faces a potential correction. It must quickly reclaim $110,800. Failure to do so could trigger a further downturn. Glassnode identified a key metric. $110,800 is the average cost for new investors, based on May through July buyers. During this period, Bitcoin hit new all-time highs. Bitcoin Should Defend $110,800 Glassnode explains that the average cost of newer investors, who have been in the market for one to three months, reveals their short-term behavior and shows the nature of new money. Based on Glassnode’s data, this price stands at $110,800 now. Historically, this price level is significant, below which it often signals a bear market, leading to a substantial price correction. BTC: Realized Price by Age. Source: Glassnode The Glassnode chart reveals this trend. The orange line shows the cost for new investors, and the black line shows Bitcoin’s price. When the black line crosses below the orange, prices tend to fall. On Monday, Bitcoin saw its largest long liquidation event since December 2024. On Tuesday, Bitcoin’s price briefly fell, hitting a low of $108,600. It has since slightly rebounded. A sharp price drop triggered the sell-off, liquidating over $150 million in long positions. This is why a swift recovery above $110,800 is crucial. Ethereum Shows Signs of Overheating Ethereum’s price has reached a high level. Glassnode noted its significant valuation. “With Ethereum hitting a new ATH, the MVRV ratio has climbed to 2.15,” they stated. The MVRV ratio is a key on-chain indicator. It compares market value to realized value, helping to gauge whether the market is overvalued. [Market Value to Realized Value Ratio(MVRV). Source: Glassnode] 2.15 MVRV ratio is noteworthy, meaning that investors hold unrealized profits, i.e., their average gains are over 2.15 times their cost. Regarding the unprecedented number, Glassnode explained, “This level mirrors prior market structures.”…

$900M Crypto Market Liquidations Trigger Selloff: Buyers to Step Back?

The post $900M Crypto Market Liquidations Trigger Selloff: Buyers to Step Back? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Insights: Crypto market liquidations hit nearly $900 million in 24 hours, mostly from long positions. Total crypto market cap dropped to $3.73 trillion, with $3.69 trillion as key support. Large short pools above BTC and ETH prices set up a possible short squeeze if buyers return. The crypto market slipped hard during the last 24 hours. Total value fell about 4.5% to $3.73 trillion. Prices moved fast as many leveraged traders were forced out. Trackers showed $840 million–$904 million in crypto liquidations in 24 hours, mostly from long bets. That is a big shakeout. Now traders are asking the key question: Does this washout set up a rebound? This piece might have the answers. What $900M in Crypto Market Liquidations Means A liquidation is a forced close. It happens when a leveraged trade cannot cover losses. Longs are wiped out when the price drops. Shorts are wiped out when the price jumps. Large batches of liquidations often speed up a move. In the past day, liquidation feeds showed a heavy long wipe. One data post flagged $904 million in total liquidations, with $818 million from longs. The largest single hit was $39.24 million on a BTC/USDT pair. Another tracker posted a similar total near $839.8 million. Both tell the same story: the longs were on the wrong side. Details On Liquidations | Source: X We have seen this play before. On August 1, long liquidations hit about $922 million. After that flush, new money came in and prices bounced. A flush is not a buy signal by itself. But it often clears weak hands and resets risk. Crypto Liquidations Led To Another Correction A Few Weeks Back | Source: CoinGlass Whale flows added to the drop. One popular feed showed 50,000 BTC, roughly $6 billion, moved out by big…

Big Ideas Series, Part 1: Tokenized genetics

The post Big Ideas Series, Part 1: Tokenized genetics appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Homepage > News > Editorial > Big Ideas Series, Part 1: Tokenized genetics I have had a bunch of these ideas kicking around in my head for years, and I’m going to start giving them out to entrepreneurs so we can get this party started in the Teranode era. If you turn my idea into a thriving company, please credit me and/or throw me a bone! Now, for the content! Energy was the resource driver that defined the last century. Whale fat, crude oil, coal, nuclear… Control of energy created puppet masters the likes of which had never been seen until data emerged as the key commodity of the 21st century. I have long stated that “data is money,” but much like the gulf of difference between a whale-fat lamp’s disparity relative to uranium rods in a nuclear power plant, there is a hierarchy in the value of different types of data. In my opinion, genetic data will be a major defining cornerstone of this emerging era. Why? Hidden within every strand of DNA is code that could add decades to our lives or end them prematurely. That code can reveal predispositions to disease, show whether a drug will help or harm, and point scientists toward cures we once thought impossible. But DNA isn’t just a treasure trove for medicine. It is also a dossier of vulnerabilities. Employers could discriminate. Insurers could deny coverage. Criminals or governments could weaponize genetic traits against particular groups. Once your genome escapes your control, you can’t take it back or change it. This tension, between unprecedented benefit and existential risk, makes the question of who owns and safeguards our genetic information one of the most urgent discussions of our time. And yet, it is not often discussed. Nowhere is that tension clearer than in…

XRP Price Prediction: $10. DOT Miners Offer XRP Mining Services to Maximize Asset Utilization

After Federal Reserve Chairman Powell confirmed that a September rate cut remains on the table, the crypto market experienced a brief rebound, with Bitcoin surging and XRP surging 3%, briefly hitting resistance at $2.92. However, in an institutionally dominated market, XRP remained volatile, with the price dropping to around $2.80 within 24 hours, placing pressure on the short-term outlook. On-Chain and Capital Flows: New Opportunities Amidst Volatility On-chain data shows that the XRP market experienced significant liquidation pressure, with major exchanges collectively selling approximately 470 million XRP, causing the price to plummet within six trading hours. Meanwhile, settlement volume surged to 844 million XRP on August 18, a new yearly high, demonstrating that despite price pressure, actual network usage continues to expand. On the regulatory front, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed its ruling on the XRP ETF application, with the decision expected in October, further increasing market uncertainty. A recent report from a security rating agency indicates that XRP’s robustness ranks low among several public chains, exacerbating concerns among some institutional investors. Why Is DOT Miners Attracting Attention? For many XRP holders, price volatility increases the risk of short-term trading. In contrast, the automated XRP mining service offered by DOT Miners offers a stable alternative: It offers daily returns, with funds secured by cold storage and SSL encryption. Register and receive $15. Participation is zero-cost; no mining equipment or technical expertise is required; simply activate your computing power. Automatic 24-hour settlement transforms your XRP holdings from a dormant asset into a source of cash flow. Popular Mining Contract Details Technical Analysis and Strategies In the short term, XRP faces key support at $2.80, with resistance in the $2.92–$3.00 range. Bearish risks remain unless the price reclaims $3.00. A break below $2.80 could lead to further declines to $2.75 or even $2.63. For medium- to long-term investors, regulatory clarity and institutional adoption remain positive signals. However, during periods of heightened volatility, securing a stable cash flow through DOT Miners cloud mining is undoubtedly a superior way to mitigate risk and maximize asset utilization.

Sleepless In Crypto: $900-M Liquidated Amid Bitcoin’s Steep Fall

The post Sleepless In Crypto: $900-M Liquidated Amid Bitcoin’s Steep Fall appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A significant plunge in the crypto market has sent shockwaves across the industry over the last 24 hours, leaving a trail of liquidations in its wake. Around 200,000 traders were forced out of their positions as Bitcoin plunged to a seven-week low, wiping out more than $900 million in liquidations over a single day. According to CoinGlass, most of those losses came from long bets that could not weather the slide. Liquidations Hit Retail Traders Reports have disclosed that a single large sale helped set off the cascade. Selling pressure intensified as a large holder offloaded 24,000 BTC, triggering a wave of liquidations, said Rachael Lucas, a crypto analyst at BTC Markets. On Coinbase, Bitcoin briefly fell below $109,000 — its weakest level since July 9. Market participants felt the shock fast; traders who were long were the ones most exposed. Macro Signals And Market Reaction A recent hint from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at Jackson Hole about potential interest rate cuts changed how some investors priced risk. Since August 14, when Bitcoin reached an all-time high just over $124,000, the asset has corrected by over 10%. Based on data, the drop since Powell’s speech is about 7%. The single-day move was measured at close to 3% decline for Bitcoin, and total crypto market value slipped back below $4 trillion to about $3.83 trillion as almost $200 billion flowed out of the space. Ether Is Holding Up Ether traded near $4,340 and, for now, looks steadier than Bitcoin. It did fall, but it did not breach last week’s low. Institutional interest in Ether remains a talking point. According to Lucas, institutions continue to focus on Ethereum, even as traders reassess risk across smaller coins. Altcoins Took Bigger Hits Many smaller tokens fell harder than the majors. Solana, Dogecoin, Cardano, Chainlink,…

Hellish bull market: Star traders lose 700 million in floating profits, and survival is not based on luck

By Jia Huan, ChainCatcher The 2025 bull market was like a hellish ordeal. On one hand, the crypto market, after losing $1.3 trillion in three months, rebounded, accompanied by wild volatility and countless margin calls. On the other hand, Bitcoin soared from a low of $40,000 in early 2024 to over $120,000, continuously breaking new highs. In terms of market sentiment, traders are mainly greedy (46.85%), with significant fear and neutral periods. They are facing a volatile trading environment and strong FOMO emotions. As X user Sha Po Lang said: This bull market is as difficult as hell, and only true believers can reap the fruits of victory! This article will focus on star traders in the crypto market, revealing the cruel side of the market through their gains and losses, as well as our response strategies. Can star traders also lose all their money? This hellish bull market isn't just a test for ordinary investors; it's also a test for star traders. They're often known for their high-risk, high-return strategies, but their experiences also highlight the brutality of the market. Below is a list of several well-known star traders: some specialize in long positions, some in short-term trading, some start with small capital, and some are extremely sensitive to macroeconomic trends. Yet, invariably, they all end up losing money or even going bankrupt. 1. James Wynn ● Trading Style: Bold and aggressive, primarily long PEPE and BTC. Good at capturing early opportunities in high-potential tokens, often adding to positions during price fluctuations. Frequently shares positions on social media to attract attention, but also attracts whales, with his position rebounding after hitting his stop-loss price multiple times. ● Peak performance: Achieved over 10,000 times profit through PEPE in the early stage, holding 1.23 billion BTC long orders; within 70 days, the floating profit increased from 0 to 87 million US dollars ● Losses: Multiple liquidations resulted in a loss of all profits and a loss of $23 million 2. Insider Brother qwatio ● Trading style: Sensitive to macroeconomic events, good at short-term operations, high winning rate. He has opened positions before key time points like an "insider trader" many times. ● Peak performance: Soared from $3 million in principal to $26 million; once made a profit of $2.15 million in 40 minutes, quickly doubling the profit by capturing the macro fluctuations of BTC and ETH ● Losses: Accounts ultimately returned to zero; $25.8 million lost in 3 hours due to leveraged short position liquidation; total losses reached over $28 million 3. AguilaTrades ● Trading style: Enthusiastic about high leverage and rolling positions, preferring BTC and ETH. Win rate relies on market trends, but neglects position diversification and emotion management, often returning to heavy positions immediately after losses. ● Peak performance: From $300,000 in principal to $41.7 million ● Loss: Loss of $37.6 million, with only $30,000 left in the account In addition, there are star traders such as Jason Leo, whose floating profits went from 700 million to zero, and suffered heavy losses in this hellish bull market. Lessons from Gains and Losses: Restraint and Rationality: The Ultimate Rules for Surviving a Bull Market Amidst the turbulent bull market, the trading performance of star traders serves as a mirror, revealing the harsh reality of the crypto market and serving as a reminder that only by restraining greed and maintaining a rational strategy can we survive. User X, Web3 Philosopher, commented: "Many people are actually gambling, but mistakenly believe they are trading. Many are actually gamblers, but claim to be traders." Gamblers are on the left and traders are on the right. The two seem to be only a fine line apart, but in fact there is a world of difference between them. The former often relies on luck and emotions, buying heavily at market highs and panic selling at market lows, ignoring timing and position control. The latter views the market as a battlefield and develops rigorous strategies: using technical analysis, fundamental research, and stop-loss mechanisms, diversifying the portfolio, and maintaining emotional neutrality. The three star traders introduced above also reached the altar, but in the end they all experienced a dramatic turn from the peak to zero because of their "red eyes". In a bull market, locking in profits is a key strategy to prevent wealth evaporation. Market volatility is volatile, and while prices can surge from lows, a pullback can often wipe out all gains. Promptly locking in principal provides a layer of insurance for your position, allowing you to leverage your profits and ensure long-term market survival. At the same time, we should strengthen emotional management. The emotions here do not only mean not getting carried away when suffering heavy losses, but also staying restrained and calm, analyzing where the strategy went wrong, and then making adjustments and starting over; it also means not showing off large orders, keeping a low profile, trading smartly, and protecting your funds from whale snipers. In this hellish bull market, glory and traps coexist. There is never a shortage of opportunities to make money in the cryptocurrency circle. What is lacking are investors who have restraint and rationality. Only they can survive the frenzy of greed and have the last laugh.

James Wynn wiped on 10x DOGE bet, as he prepares to 'go max long'

                                                                               The millionaire leverage trader was liquidated on his latest DOGE position, as he predicted an end to the current market downturn.                     Crypto millionaire James Wynn said the August market downturn was ending, even after his latest memecoin liquidation by an alleged market maker “cabal.”  Wynn was liquidated on his recent 10x leveraged long position that was betting on a Dogecoin (DOGE) price appreciation, losing $22,627, according to blockchain data platform Onchain Lens’ Monday X post.That was a relatively small loss for Wynn, compared to his leveraged $100 million position that was liquidated on May 30, when BTC briefly dipped below a 10-day low of $105,000.Read more
