Crypto liquidations hit $239M in 24 hours, longs dominate at $153M

Crypto futures liquidations across exchanges totaled $239 million over the past 24 hours, with long positions accounting for $153 million and shorts $86.73 million, CoinGlass data shows. Bitcoin liquidations reached $27.14 million and Ethereum $52.57 million. The largest single liquidation, worth $4.47 million, occurred on Binance’s ETHUSDT contract.

AI take

The long-heavy skew in liquidations points to a market that was positioned for continuation and got caught leaning the wrong way, rather than a broad two-sided washout. That Ethereum's liquidation total dwarfed Bitcoin's, and produced the single largest forced exit on a Binance ETH pair, suggests the stress was concentrated in ETH positioning rather than across the board. Whether that concentration reflects a one-off flush or the start of a broader de-risking is the open question.
