Crypto exchanges record $1.14 billion liquidations in one day

According to Data from Bybt, a cryptocurrency futures trading and information platform, the total amount of future contract liquidation on centralized exchanges hit a record $1.14 billion in the past 24 hours with 104,014 traders liquidated from their short positions on cryptocurrencies. This has been the most liquidation since May 19.

Shorting a crypto asset in principle means the investor’s main objective is to sell the digital asset at a high price and buy it back at a lower price. Unlike most investors who like to buy cheap and sell at a premium, short-sellers adapt the order of this mechanism by aiming to sell high and buy low. This process is permitted in the Crypto derivative market.

The liquidation shows that a lot of futures traders were betting for the cryptocurrency market to go further down (sell-off) but the market had other plans as flagship cryptocurrency Bitcoin quickly recovered from trading a low of $29,360.96 last week Tuesday to currently stand at $39,750, a 35% gain, as of the time of writing this report. Other cryptos in the altcoin market also saw double-digit gain WoW.

The bybt exchange accounted for 38.67% of the total liquidations, amounting to $437 million. This was followed by Huobi exchange which accounted for $218 million and Okex coming in third with $217 million. Binance exchange, the largest cryptocurrency centralized exchange by volume came in fourth, accounting for $129 million, representing 11.37%.

The rally in the market can be linked back to a violent short squeeze occurring as prices broke above $35,000, and then suddenly accelerated by 11% from roughly $35,350 to $39,280 in less than three hours in the Asian session today.

Bitcoin is currently up 15.47% for the day and the total cryptocurrency market capitalization currently stands at approximately $1.55 trillion, as of the time of writing this report.
