It’s exploding! The collapse of US-Iran talks has triggered panic, with 100,000 retail investors instantly wiped out


$BTC
Family, big event! Just now, the market suddenly performed a "straight plunge," with Bitcoin (BTC) briefly dropping to around 71,300, and Ethereum (ETH) nearly losing the 2,200 support level.

This sudden crash wasn't just a simple dip; the root cause is that macro sentiment exploded—US-Iran negotiations broke down after 21 hours, and the American vice president warned "withdraw if no consensus," directly triggering geopolitical risk and crashing the risk markets.

How severe is this bloodbath?
Although different sources report conflicting figures (some say $306 million lost, others say $283 million), one thing everyone agrees on: in the past 24 hours, over 100,000 positions worldwide have been wiped out. The key point—this move first kills the short positions and then the long positions, taking both sides! Many traders who chased the high before the drop didn't have time to close their positions and were directly pressed to the floor by this bearish candle.

Why is this considered a classic "long and short double kill"?
A few days ago, the market rebounded, and many thought it was safe to chase the rally. But when the data came out early morning, the shorts were first triggered to explode; just as everyone thought it would continue higher, a geopolitical black swan struck, quickly burying all the chasing longs. In this kind of market, high-leverage contracts are basically headhunting tools—whether long or short, as long as you're holding a position, the market makers will always find your stop-loss with precision.

Ultimately, only one type of person can survive this kind of market—those holding spot positions and watching the show. Contracts are a double-edged sword; in such news-driven markets, technical analysis is worthless in the face of sudden news.
