In the last 24 hours, the cryptocurrency market witnessed an unexpected trend. A total of 156,601 participants faced liquidation due to movements contrary to market forecasts, with total liquidations reaching $573.19 million.
Liquidations in Cryptocurrencies
Bitcoin 
$111,074 experienced a drop to $74,589 before surging over 8% to $82,942.43. This sudden increase caused significant losses for short-position traders, with the largest liquidation example occurring on the OKX exchange, amounting to $4.47 million. Short-position holders lost $137 million, while long-position traders were affected by $87.77 million. Ethereum 
$2,651 saw liquidations of $161.71 million, and XRP faced $26.75 million.
As trade tensions between the U.S. and China created market uncertainty, new policies were introduced for traders. The U.S. President announced a 90-day tariff suspension for countries engaged in negotiations.
However, specific countries, particularly China, remain subject to a 125% tariff, keeping risk factors in play. This situation has added extra uncertainty to short-term trades but has not hindered the upward movement.
Market Forecast
Since April, Bitcoin prices have stayed above the crucial $74,000 level. Market experts emphasize the importance of this price point for investor confidence. While some industry representatives present optimistic views for sustainability, caution remains regarding the long-term effects of ongoing tensions.
Bitcoin advocate Samson Mow described the recent price fluctuations as a mini ‘Godzilla’ effect.
There is a prevailing view that the market is entering a normalization phase, though unexpected developments continue to pose risks. Technical analyses stress the necessity for investors to act cautiously and prioritize risk management.
The volatility in the cryptocurrency market is shaped by global trade policies and economic uncertainties. Traders should closely monitor market dynamics and adjust their strategies, which is deemed crucial during periods of uncertainty.
