Crypto liquidations surge to $1.4B as Bitcoin stays below $70k
Key Facts
Total cryptocurrency market liquidations have surged to over $1.4 billion as Bitcoin continues to trade below the $70,000 mark. Moneycontrol.com reported that the sharp escalation in forced liquidations followed a 6.64% drop in Bitcoin's price to $68,850.76, marking a three-month low.
The market-wide decline saw Ethereum drop toward $1,900 while XRP neared the $1.00 level. This selling pressure coincided with $1.44 billion in outflows from US spot Bitcoin ETFs over five sessions, driven by concerns over tighter Federal Reserve monetary policy and cooling valuations in the AI sector.
