$BTC More than $1 billion has been liquidated across the crypto market in the past 24 hours as Bitcoin and Ethereum sold off sharply.



Bitcoin briefly fell to its lowest level since early June as leveraged positions were wiped out across the market.

What's notable is that this wasn't just a crypto move.

The sell-off came as risk assets broadly weakened before strong earnings from Micron helped stabilise sentiment around the AI trade.

For weeks, crypto has been moving alongside the same risk-on narrative driving AI stocks higher.

The last 24 hours were a reminder that when liquidity disappears, both can get hit fast.

$1B liquidation shows that the market is still too immature; places where high leverage gathers will inevitably blow up sooner or later.

Has the AI narrative started to decouple from crypto? As soon as Micron's earnings came out, risk sentiment immediately rebounded, indicating that what fell earlier was macro liquidity, not fundamentals.

The liquidation amount is a bit ridiculous, leveraged longs were wiped out in one wave.
