The majority of cryptocurrencies have lost key support levels in the last 24 hours due to waning sentiment in the broader crypto market, resulting in approximately $883 million in liquidations, per Coinglass data.
Ether-tracked futures lost over $358 million, which is pretty close to the $400 million loss experienced by Bitcoin futures. During the current market sell-off, futures on Solana, Dogecoin and XRP lost $18.60 million, $4.77 million and $5.54 million, respectively. Futures on Cardano’s ADA lost $7.53 million, while Avalanche (AVAX) saw $4.89 million in losses.
However, Shiba Inu futures saw fewer losses at over $1.35 million, partly due to its cheaper valuation.
