Crypto Market Sees Nearly $1B in Daily Liquidations as Overleveraged Longs Are Caught Off Guard by Macro Jitters
- Bitcoin's price fell nearly 3% to $100,500 before rebounding to $102,180 during a broad crypto market sell-off in the past 24 hours.
- The sell-off followed long-term Bitcoin holders gradually liquidating positions amid escalating tensions between Elon Musk and Donald Trump.
- This triggered over $982 million in total liquidations, including $308 million from Bitcoin long positions and significant losses across Ethereum, Dogecoin, and other major cryptocurrencies.
- On June 5, Musk criticized Trump's global tariffs, warning they could cause a recession, while Trump threatened to cancel Musk's government contracts in retaliation.
- The combination of political disputes and long-term holder selling has increased the likelihood of a short-term correction and ongoing downward pressure in crypto markets.
