312 (Black Thursday)
Typical characteristics of the decline list:
BTC: Maximum single/two-day drop ~40-50% (from ~7900 to ~3800)
ETH: Drop ~40-55%
Most altcoins: 50-80%+, some leveraged products or small coins nearly wiped out.
Over $2-3 billion in liquidations across the network, market structure temporarily collapsed.
519 (Chinese regulatory crackdown)
Typical characteristics of the decline list:
BTC: 24h decline ~30-34% (from ~44k to ~29k)
ETH: Drop ~40%+
Altcoins/Alts: generally 50-80%, some high leverage/DeFi tokens 70-90% or more.
Actual loss scale on that day set a record at the time (Glassnode data over $2.5 billion).
1011 Event Review
BTC: Drop from about $117k-$122k high, briefly spiked down to $101k-$102k, maximum decline 13-17% (some periods over 20% in 24h)
ETH: Drop 16-40%+
Altcoins/Alts generally 30-60%, some small coins/Meme 80-90%+ or nearly zero.
Liquidation amount: about $19.1-$19.3 billion (record high), far exceeding the scale of ~3 billion in 312 and the scale of 519, affecting over 1.6 million accounts (long positions account for 85-90%).
Trigger factors: Trump suddenly announced 100% tariffs on China and escalated trade war, triggering global risk aversion + chain reaction liquidations (USDe cycle loans, Hyperliquid and other platforms hit hardest). Some exchanges’ API failures/ADL mechanisms worsened the flash crash.
