cryptoliquidationstats

Bitcoin slipping below $80K didn’t just sting traders — it triggered a massive liquidation cascade.
Roughly $2.5 BILLION in leveraged positions were wiped out in a single wave 🤯📉
This wasn’t slow selling.
This was forced liquidation dominoes — the kind that rival the ugliest moments in crypto history.
📉 Thin liquidity + leverage = air pockets.
When price breaks, it doesn’t drift… it falls.
⚡ Why This Drop Turned Violent

This wasn’t just fear.
On-chain data shows large BTC inflows to exchanges right as price lost key levels.
Deadly combo:

📦 Heavy spot supply hitting exchanges

⚖️ Overleveraged longs

📉 Major support snapping

Once $80K broke, liquidations stacked on top of liquidations.
No reaction time. No clean bounce. Just volatility.
🧠 Now the Spotlight Shifts to Michael Saylor
Retail panic is normal — but this time, institutions are under the microscope too 👀
Strategy holds one of the largest BTC treasuries on Earth:

🪙 ~712,000+ BTC

💰 Avg cost ≈ $76K

📊 BTC recently traded near $78.5K

That’s a razor-thin buffer above breakeven.
Not forced selling. Not bankruptcy.
But psychologically? The narrative shifts fast.
📉 From “Genius” to “Under Pressure”
At the highs, Strategy’s BTC stack was worth $80B+.
Same coins today — very different valuation.
When a company ties its identity to Bitcoin,
📊 price = perception.
A few more % down and headlines flip from:
🟢 “Bitcoin masterstroke”
to
🔴 “Is Strategy underwater?”
💎 Historically, Saylor doesn’t sell.
But pressure builds — on sentiment, not solvency.
🧩 The Bigger Picture
This crash wasn’t about one company. It was about:

Excess leverage

Thin liquidity

Large holder movement

A key level breaking

That mix creates violent unwinds.
But here’s the key 👇
Liquidation crashes are mechanical, not fundamental.
They flush positions, not belief.
🎯 So What Now?

Bitcoin isn’t broken — it’s deleverage resetting

Strategy isn’t wrecked — it’s just closer to cost

The market is testing conviction, not technology

These moments feel the worst in real time…
and often become major turning points in hindsight.
📉 Scary chart.
🧱 Intact structure.
⚡ Big difference.
Welcome to crypto — where volatility writes the story before fundamentals catch up.
