Data shows the cryptocurrency derivatives market has suffered a high amount of liquidations in the past day as Bitcoin and other assets have crashed.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin, Ethereum Saw Notable Plunges During Past Day<\/h2>\n

The last 24 hours have been red<\/a> for digital assets, with a bulk of the market observing a drawdown of more than 5%. Bitcoin has been no exception, as its price has slipped under the $95,000 level.<\/p>\n

It was only a couple of days back that the asset had shown a sharp recovery<\/a> above the $102,000 mark. The steep crash since then would suggest the investors didn’t believe the rally would have legs, so they decided to take their profits while they could.<\/p>\n

Ethereum, the second largest cryptocurrency by market cap, has had it even worse than Bitcoin, with its price coming down to $3,350 after a drop of almost 8% during the past day.<\/p>\n

With its plunge, Ethereum has basically retraced all the bullish momentum that had come with this new year of 2025. Bitcoin still retains some of its gains, but if the current trajectory continues, it wouldn’t be long before it meets the same fate as well.<\/p>\n

With all the carnage that the digital asset sector has seen, it would be expected that the derivatives side of the market would likewise have gone through some chaos.<\/p>\n

Crypto Longs Have Just Taken A Massive Beating<\/h2>\n

According to data from CoinGlass<\/a>, a mass amount of liquidations have piled up on derivatives exchanges during the past day. “Liquidation<\/a>” refers to the forceful closure that any open contract undergoes after it has amassed losses of a certain degree (the exact percentage of which may differ between platforms).<\/p>\n

Below is a table that breaks down the relevant numbers related to the latest cryptocurrency liquidations.<\/p>\n

As is visible, a total of $689 million in contracts have been flushed in the last 24 hours. Out of these, over $609 million of the positions involved were long ones. This means an overwhelming 88% of the liquidations affected the traders betting on a bullish outcome for the market.<\/p>\n

Given the crash that the cryptocurrency sector has gone through during this window, it’s not exactly a surprise to see this disparity between long and short liquidations.<\/p>\n

In terms of the contributions to the squeeze by the individual symbols, Bitcoin has interestingly not topped the charts this time around. Instead, Ethereum has been king with almost $152 million in liquidations.<\/p>\n

The fact that Ethereum’s drawdown has been more significant than Bitcoin’s has part to play in this, but it may not be the full story. It’s possible that the trend is an indication that the speculative interest around ETH has been particularly pronounced recently.<\/p>\n

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to. In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor\u2019s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions. Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true. Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn\u2019t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment.. Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form. Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new. As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money. Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn\u2019t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs. Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/keshavverma29\/\",\"https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/keshavvarma29\"],\"url\":\"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/author\/hououinkyouma29\/\"}]}<\/script>\n","yoast_head_json":{"title":"Crypto
