In just 24 hours, Bitcoin slipped to around $74,700, while XRP and Solana (SOL) both plummeted by approximately 20%. The rapid decline triggered widespread liquidations, wiping out more than $1.2 billion in leveraged long positions.<\/p>\n
The sudden crash caught many investors off guard, especially those who had bet heavily on rising prices. Data from CoinGlass<\/a><\/strong> indicates that long positions were particularly affected, making up nearly 86% of the total liquidations. Bitcoin investors alone lost over $467 million, while Ethereum (ETH) bulls saw around $390 million evaporate. XRP and Solana futures also faced significant losses, amounting to $140 million combined.<\/p>\n This wave of liquidations marked a stark reversal from expectations that April would bring a bullish trend. Instead, Bitcoin’s price dipped below $75,000, with Ethereum also tumbling by 15% to around $1,430.<\/p>\n
