ETH and XRP led the pack from the larger caps, while others, like CRO and HYPE, had dumped by 7%-8%.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, BTC was coping rather well. It was still in the red on a daily scale, but it was down by just 1% and remained above $114,500. However, the tides have turned, and the largest cryptocurrency plunged to $112,000 in a vicious flash crash minutes ago.<\/p>\n<p>This meant that bitcoin had lost more than $5,500 since its Sunday price of around $115,600. Naturally, most altcoins followed suit in a similar manner, including ETH, which plunged to under $4,050 before recovering slightly to $4,200 as of press time.<\/p>\n<p>The liquidations have skyrocketed as a result of this massive volatility. They went from $630 million at the time of our previous article to $1.7 billion on a daily scale as of press time. ETH still leads with over $470 million of the total share.<\/p>\n<p>A mindblowing number of more than 400,000 traders have been wrecked daily, while the single largest liquidated position was worth almost $13 million.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_413339\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-413339\" style=\"width: 1360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-22-092036.png\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-413339\" src=\"http:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/Screenshot-2025-09-22-092036.png\" alt=\"Liquidation Heat Map.
