The cryptocurrency market has experienced significant volatility over the past 24 hours, with over $1 billion in funds liquidated as Bitcoin briefly fell below the $100,000 mark.

Cryptocurrency Market Liquidations

According to CoinGlass data, a total of $1.18 billion was liquidated from nearly 406,000 traders, with $921 million coming from long positions and $260 million from short positions.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Price Fluctuations

Ethereum led the long liquidations with over $207.5 million, while Bitcoin followed with over $202 million. Bitcoin experienced a more than 6% drop, falling to around $99,700 on January 19.

Altcoins and Memecoins Situation

At the time of writing, other major altcoins also suffered substantial losses. XRP, Dogecoin, Cardano, Avalanche, Sui, and Stellar all experienced double-digit declines over the past day. In the memecoins segment, Donald Trump’s token saw a sharp 40% drop following its recent surge.

These events highlight the volatile nature of the crypto market, where both major assets and speculative memecoins experience sharp fluctuations. This presents both opportunities and risks for market participants.
