【BiTu】Yesterday, the market experienced quite a lot of volatility. According to on-chain data, the total liquidation amount across the entire network in the past 24 hours reached $77,773,700, with long positions liquidated at $31,787,800 and short positions at $45,985,900.

Looking at mainstream coins, Bitcoin saw long liquidations of $1,836,000 and short liquidations of $3,272,700. Ethereum’s situation was even more intense — long liquidations of $1,026,800 and short liquidations of $6,894,500, indicating that short sellers took a significant hit.

Data also shows that 73,296 traders were liquidated in this 24-hour period. The largest single liquidation occurred on the Hyperliquid platform for the xyz:AMZN-USD contract, where one order was liquidated for $1,305,500.

What does this data tell us? First, market volatility is indeed increasing. Second, leverage traders need to pay more attention to risk management. Whether going long or short, position management and stop-loss settings are really important.

Yesterday was another bloodbath day, with over 70 million liquidated, making people feel exhausted to watch. --- Over 1.3 million in a single order wiped out, I just want to ask, is this guy really brave or just reckless? --- Those shorting Ethereum are probably crying now, 6.89 million gone. --- Over 73,000 people liquidated in one day, this is the so-called "market education." --- Leverage, huh? It feels great when you're making money, but when you're liquidated, it's truly desperate. --- Regarding the Hyperliquid order, I bet five dollars that this guy didn't set his stop-loss properly. --- Shorts lost so much, it seems longs aren't doing much better either, everyone is getting beaten up. --- Over 70 million lost in a day, these fluctuations are definitely accelerating. --- Seeing this data makes me think, leverage is always the fastest way to transfer wealth.

Another leverage disaster... 77.77 million liquidation, who the hell is this unlucky? --- The shorts took a huge hit this time, 6.89 million evaporated instantly. What else can be done? --- A single loss of 1.3 million? Hyperliquid, you're playing with fire. --- 73,296 people went bankrupt. This is the daily life of crypto, right? --- Leverage is really a thin line between heaven and hell. --- Looking at these numbers, I’m glad I didn’t play with leverage. Just staying alive is earning enough. --- Long and short both wiped out, this market is truly outrageous. --- Bitcoin and Ethereum’s volatility, shorting was indeed brutal... Would you dare to do it again next time?

Oh no, another day of massive leverage liquidation --- Over 7,300 people sacrificed, this volatility is intense --- The bears got crushed, what’s 6.89 million ETH? It should have been closed earlier --- A single liquidation of 1.3 million orders, Hyperliquid platform really knows how to surprise --- Still dare to use leverage? Isn’t it better to just stay alive these days? --- Just by looking at the data, you can see the market is filtering out who should be eliminated --- It’s another case of others getting liquidated while I make money, this market movement is truly outrageous --- 32,296 bloody lessons, when will we learn to remember?

It's the same story again, the bears got taught a lesson haha --- 77.77 million liquidation, it's clear who profits and who loses this round --- Over 130,000 lost in a single trade, this guy is pretty bold --- 73,296 people went bankrupt, I have to ask, who still dares to leverage --- Is Ethereum's short position so miserable? Looks like the longs are winning again --- Just want to ask, what was going through the mind of the one who got liquidated for 130,000? That’s some guts --- Basically, leverage is a poison; whoever greedily uses it will die --- Hyperliquid is just a platform full of liquidation stories --- Bears lost nearly 50 million, and the bulls aren’t doing much better, all are just retail investors --- Every time I see these numbers, I feel lucky I don’t trade with leverage

It's another day of shorts getting taught a lesson, with over 70,000 people sacrificed... Leverage is truly poison; it pains me to watch. Over 1.3 million directly evaporated, Hyperliquid's cut this time was ruthless. Friends who got liquidated, condolences. Remember to cut losses next time. Brothers shorting Ethereum, you lost big this time. 77.77 million... this number feels a bit ominous. In fact, it's just the death list for leverage traders during high volatility periods.

Yesterday's market surge directly wiped out over 70,000 people, and I almost got caught too. The bears were really crushed this time; ETH's decline was outrageous. Seeing that single liquidation of over 130,000, it feels like someone just cleared their position. Leverage is basically gambling with your life; it's too crazy. Once again, Hyperliquid has caused a major event; this platform is really good at creating chaos. 73,296 people—so many people out in just one day. My account name really fits perfectly.

The shorts got cut again. This round, the bulls are probably the ones who got unlucky.
