CryptoPotato reported earlier BTC’s attempts to overcome $71,000, which had little success. The bears managed to intercept the moves and pushed the cryptocurrency south to around $70,000.
However, that was just the beginning of Bitcoin’s red Friday. After a recent warning that the situation could worsen soon, the asset’s price plunged to a weekly low of around $65,000.
Although BTC has recovered some ground since then and now sits at around $67,000, it is still about 5% down on the day.
The alternative coins have charted even more violent price declines. Ethereum has shed 8% of its value and has plummeted to $3,230 as of now.
More pain comes from the likes of SOL, XRP, DOGE, TON, ADA, AVAX, BCH, SHIB, and DOT – all of those have dropped by double digits on a daily scale.
Overleveraged traders have felt these massive price fluctuations as the liquidations have skyrocketed to almost $500 million in the past hour alone. The 12-hour count is at over $800 million, according to CoinGlass.
Almost 300,000 traders have been wiped out in the past day. The single largest liquidated position was placed on OKX and was worth more than $7 million.
