OCTOBER 10, 2025 — $19 BILLION LIQUIDATION SHOCK
In just 24 hours, over $19B in leveraged positions were wiped out — the largest single-day liquidation in crypto history.
📉 $6.93B liquidated in 40 minutes
⚡ $3.21B erased in ONE minute
🔻 BTC -14.5% | ETH -12.2% | SOL -40%
💸 ~$350B market cap vanished
👥 1.6M+ accounts liquidated
This wasn’t another FTX.
It was a mechanical leverage unwind triggered by a macro shock — Trump’s 100% China tariff announcement — amplified by record leverage.
4 months later:
• Liquidity remains thin
• Open interest below highs
• Memecoins fell from $80B → $47B
• Debate continues over USDe’s role
The industry still doesn’t agree on what truly broke the system.
