What to know:
Well, well, well, if it isn’t the crypto markets throwing a good old-fashioned temper tantrum! π€ Looks like the bulls got a little too excited and ended up losing a cool $770 million in the past 24 hours. Ouch, that’s gotta hurt! π€
Solana’s SOL and the ever-so-lovable dogecoin (DOGE) led the charge, plummeting more than 10% to make the rest of the majors look like a bunch of wimps. π Ether (ETH), BNB Chain’s bnb, XRP, and Cardano‘s ADA weren’t far behind, dropping as much as 9%. Overall, the market cap took an 8.5% nosedive, leaving investors feeling like they just got hit by a crypto-powered wrecking ball. π₯
But wait, there’s more! Tokens outside the top twenty weren’t spared either, with memecoin pepe (PEPE), layer 1 upstart Aptos (APT), Gate.io’s GATE, and AI Agent creation platform Virtuals (VIRTUALS) losing up to 18%. Ouch, that’s gotta sting! π₯
The only token that managed to escape the bloodbath was Jupiter’s JUP, which gained a whopping 3.5% thanks to a decision to buy back tokens from the open market. π€ Looks like someone’s got a little crypto-powered magic up their sleeve!
As for Bitcoin, it slumped under $99,000 as traders took profits, tracking losses in U.S. stock futures. Apparently, the cost and capabilities of China-based DeepSeek are causing quite a stir, threatening the otherwise costly narrative spearheaded by OpenAI. π€―
The largest single liquidation order happened on HTX, a tether-margined BTC trade valued at $98.4 million. Ouch, that’s gotta hurt! π Looks like the crypto market’s high volatility is keeping traders on their toes, with liquidations being a common occurrence. π’
But hey, maybe this is all just a big test to see who’s got the guts to stick it out in this wild and wacky world of crypto. πͺ Who knows, maybe the contrarian traders will see this as a buying opportunity and ride the wave back to the top. πββοΈ
