Bitcoin and major altcoins continue to slide days after the largest-ever forced liquidations.<\/p>\n

\n

The crypto market dropped on Tuesday after Monday\u2019s brief rebound, as investors shied away from risky assets following the largest wave of crypto liquidations in history on Friday<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>) fell about 2% to around $112,000, while Ethereum (ETH<\/a>) slipped to $4,040.<\/p>\n

Other Top 10 tokens also slid lower: BNB<\/a> dropped 5.5% to $1,212 after hitting another all-time high of around $1,370 on Monday. This comes amid fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) surrounding USDe\u2019s brief depeg on Binance on Friday, which triggered mass liquidations. <\/p>\n

However, earlier today, Binance revealed plans to support liquidated users with $300 million in token vouchers and a $100 million loan program.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, XRP declined 3.7% to $2.50. Dogecoin (DOGE), the largest memecoin by market capitalization, fell 3.5% to $0.20.<\/p>\n

The top gainers over the past 24 hours include ChainOpera AI (COAI), up 20% to $9.05, Bittensor (TAO), which rose 12% to $469, and Zcash (ZEC), gaining 7% to $260.<\/p>\n

The day\u2019s biggest losers among the top 100 tokens were Flare (FLR), down 7% to $0.01; PEPE, which fell 4% to $0.05; and Worldcoin (WLD), sliding 3.8% to $0.95.<\/p>\n

The total crypto market capitalization dropped 1.5% on the day to $3.95 trillion, with Bitcoin dominance at 57% and Ethereum\u2019s at 12.6%.<\/p>\n

Liquidations and ETF Flows<\/h2>\n

In the past 24 hours, nearly $706 million in crypto positions were liquidated, according to Coinglass data. Long positions made up $456 million, while shorts accounted for over $249 million. <\/p>\n

Ethereum led the liquidations with $234 million, followed by Bitcoin at $168 million, and other altcoins totaling $68 million.<\/p>\n

Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded outflows of over $326 million on Monday, marking the second consecutive day of withdrawals. Similarly, spot Ethereum ETFs experienced more than $428 million in outflows and also recorded their second straight day of declines, per SoSoValue.<\/p>\n

Geopolitical Uncertainty<\/h2>\n

Analysts say the sell-off extends Friday\u2019s market jitters sparked by renewed U.S.-China trade tensions, after Washington announced new 100% tariffs on Chinese tech imports. The move continues to rattle global markets as tensions increase. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe bloodbath we saw in markets over the weekend is a brutal reminder that, as the crypto market grows and matures, the risks are amplified,\u201d said Nic Puckrin, co-founder of The Coin Bureau. \u201dThe arrival of spot crypto ETFs and institutional interest has lulled investors into a false sense of security, but it remains the only market that trades after hours.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that in the current environment, thin liquidity, overleverage, and the large players \u201cmake for a toxic cocktail.\u201d<\/p>\n

In more positive news, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink hinted this morning that the asset manager will explore tokenization technology for different assets in an interview with CNBC<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\u201cI do believe we’re just at the beginning of the tokenization of all assets,” Fink said. \u201cFrom real estate to equities, to bonds across the board.\u201d <\/p>\n

This comes as the real-world asset (RWA) sector nears $34 billion in total RWA on-chain value, per RWAxyz data. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
