Bitcoin has lost $106,000 as bullish bets in the cryptocurrency market have led to $800 million in liquidations. The recent downturn has raised concerns among investors. Many traders had taken long positions, anticipating price increases, but the market’s volatility has resulted in significant losses. The liquidations highlight the risks associated with leveraged trading, where investors borrow funds to increase their market exposure. As prices drop, margin calls trigger automated sell-offs, exacerbating declines. This situation serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of cryptocurrency trading.
