Recently, there has been quite a bit of market volatility, and the liquidation data over the past 24 hours is quite heartbreaking. According to statistics, the total liquidation amount across the entire network reached $296 million, with short positions wiped out by $239 million and long positions liquidated by $56.47 million.

Specifically, for mainstream cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin saw long position losses of $13.84 million, and shorts were wiped out by $58.51 million. Ethereum's situation is similar, with long liquidations of $8.84 million and shorts even more severe—$86.58 million.

What’s even more heartbreaking is that nearly 100,000 people were liquidated yesterday (99,003 people). The largest single liquidation occurred on the Hyperliquid platform’s ETH-USD trading pair, with a direct liquidation of $18.75 million. The market is so volatile that whether you’re chasing longs or shorting, you need to be cautious.

Favorite, volatility, the volatility is too high, hope it gets even bigger so that the profit can be higher in the pressure cooker

Shorts were also wiped out over 80 million, and longs aren't doing much better. This wave really hit both sides hard. --- 100,000 people were liquidated? Wow, this market move is really brutal. --- That 1,800 from hyperliquid is gone, I really feel for them. --- Recently, the market has been ridiculous; chasing longs or shorts is just giving away money. It's better to stay laid back. --- A liquidation amount of 296 million, just hearing it makes me despair. Who the heck can withstand such volatility? --- BTC shorts were wiped out over 50 million? Next time, remember not to be so greedy, everyone. --- Seeing nearly 100,000 people liquidated in one day, I feel relieved. It proves that not using leverage was truly a wise choice.

Nearly 100,000 people have been liquidated, and just hearing this number is upsetting... I think it's time to seriously reflect on my own position management.

99,003 people were liquidated, this number... is enough to eat a week's worth of melon. Based on my analysis, at the moment when the shorts were hammered for 239 million, some large wallet addresses should be frantically transferring funds. If I’m not mistaken, this is a classic "long and short mutual explosion" scenario. Everyone imagine how disastrous that 18.75 million explosive order on Hyperliquid must have been. Risk warning: whether it's bottom fishing or catching the top, it's not playable right now.
