Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Crypto traders saw $631 million in long positions liquidated over the past 24 hours as another leverage-driven selloff hit digital asset markets. The cascade underscores how heavily leveraged positioning continues to amplify volatility across crypto exchanges. The liquidations add to pressure on market participants already navigating persistent shifts in sentiment and could draw fresh regulatory attention to leverage practices. Traders will be watching whether open interest and funding rates reset enough to stabilize prices or whether further forced selling follows.
