That support held initially, and BTC rebounded to $112,000 later during the day. However, it lost more than three grand in less than an hour and dipped to $108,600 (on Bitstamp).<\/p>\n<p>Most altcoins are in an even worse shape, led by a massive 11% decline by ZEC. ASTER follows suit, while PUMP, IP, TAO, and ENA are next in line. ETH dropped to $3,930, while XRP is well below $2.40. BNB stands close to $1,150 as of now.<\/p>\n<p>The total value of wrecked positions is on the rise again, nearing $600 million, according to CoinGlassdata. Nearly 200,000 traders have been wrecked on a daily scale. The single-largest liquidated position took place on Hyperliquid and was worth almost $10 million.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1416641\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1416641\" style=\"width: 1361px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1416641 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428.png\" alt=\"Liquidation Data on CoinGlass\" width=\"1361\" height=\"444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428.png 1361w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-300x98.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-1024x334.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-768x251.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-90x29.png 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-150x49.png 150w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-1200x391.png 1200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-1000x326.png 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-900x294.png 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-800x261.png 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-700x228.png 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-600x196.png 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-500x163.png 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-400x130.png 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-200x65.png 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-16-185428-100x33.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1361px) 100vw, 1361px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1416641\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Liquidation Data on CoinGlass<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-crashes-below-109k-as-trump-putin-meeting-triggers-600m-in-liquidations\/\">Bitcoin Crashes Below $109K as Trump-Putin Meeting Triggers $600M in Liquidations<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The bears are back in town as bitcoin just tumbled below $109,000, which is a multi-week low on some exchanges \u2013 at least those that didn\u2019t see BTC tumbling to $101,000 last Friday.
