Crypto Markets Today: BTC, Altcoins Plunge as Liquidity Tightens and Safe-Haven Demand Soars
The $1.2 billion derivatives liquidations over 24 hours deepen the crypto market decline as multiple assets hit multi-month lows amid broader financial uncertainty.
- On Friday, Bitcoin dropped below its 200-day SMA to trade near $104,500, a 6% decline in 24 hours as the crypto market hit multi-month lows.
- Equity weakness weighed on crypto, with the S&P500 down 3.3% and the CoinDesk 20 Index falling nearly 9% to 3,389 amid trade tensions and tightening U.S. liquidity.
- Coinglass data shows $1.2 billion in 24-hour liquidations with a 78-22 split favoring longs, led by Ether, BTC and Others.
- Options metrics reveal stress: a slight bearish 45 put/call split and an elevated 1-week 25 Delta Skew at approximately 21%, despite BTC futures showing stability with open interest near $25.7 billion and a 3-month basis in the 5-6% range.
- Analyst Timothy Misir called the move a tactical liquidity event layered on macro uncertainty and urged defensive positioning with staggered spot buys into $104,000 and $108,000.
