If there’s anything in crypto more thrilling than prices going up and down, it’s liquidations.
This time, SBTC suddenly plunged, briefly falling to $73,510 within 15 minutes before quickly rebounding. The price swung back and forth, as if the market were reminding investors: You can ride a roller coaster, but maybe don’t strap your entire net worth to the seat.
Data shows that about $745 million in positions across the market were liquidated in just one hour, including about $715 million in long positions.
Those figures are striking. Many longs had expected prices to keep rising, only to be forcibly closed out in the sudden drop. Before the market could explain what happened, their accounts had already made the decision for them.
So, what’s next for Bitcoin?
For now, the market’s focus has shifted to the $73,000–$75,000 range.
If this range holds firmly, it would suggest there is still some support below, and the market could see sentiment recover after the wave of liquidations.
But if the rebound proves fleeting and prices fall below this key range again, this flash crash may be more than just an ordinary leverage flush.
Of course, the market won’t start rising immediately just because investors say the bull market is back.
Going forward, rather than guessing whether prices will rise or fall, it’s more important to watch trading volume, price support, and leverage levels.
After all, a true pro can’t call every bottom—but can stay level-headed when the market goes haywire.
