Bitcoin Liquidations Surge to $138 Million Amid Market Volatility
Bitcoin experiences substantial liquidations exceeding $138 million amidst increased market volatility. Long positions bear the brunt, with losses surpassing $120 million. The SEC-approved spot bitcoin ETFs contribute to a 7% decline in Bitcoin's value over 12 days. Analysts predict further declines below $40,000. BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes employs BTC puts at a $35,000 strike price for hedging. Annualized bitcoin volatility rises from 46% to over 52%. Almost $30 million worth of leveraged bitcoin positions liquidated, predominantly longs. Unrealized profits among bitcoin holders decrease from over 90% to just above 83%, reflecting growing sell pressure.
