$440 Million Liquidated as Bitcoin Slumps
Bitcoin's recent dip below $64,000 resulted in over $440 million in liquidation losses for futures traders. This drop also impacted major cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, Solana, and Dogecoin, with predictions suggesting Bitcoin could further decline to $55,000. Long positions on Bitcoin alone suffered $100 million in losses, while Ethereum, Solana, and Dogecoin faced a combined $120 million in long liquidations. 
The liquidations, occurring when traders fail to meet margin requirements for leveraged positions, were triggered by Bitcoin's downward trend, exacerbated by record-high outflows from Grayscale's GBTC. Despite this, some traders maintain a long-term bullish outlook, anticipating Bitcoin to rebound after potentially reaching the $55,000 level. In the broader market, major tokens experienced significant declines, with ETH, SOL, and ADA dropping up to 8%, according to CoinGecko data. Despite short-term uncertainties, ongoing developments in the crypto space, including regulatory measures and investor sentiment, are expected to influence future market movements. Source: CoinDesk
