More than 172,000 traders were liquidated in a single day as Bitcoin’s losses piled up, pushing the cryptocurrency out<\/a> of the world’s top 10 largest assets by market cap. Bitcoin now sits at 13th place, trailing gold, NVIDIA, Apple<\/a>, Microsoft, and silver, among others.<\/p>\n

Longs Take The Brunt<\/h2>\n

Total crypto liquidations reached $921 million within 24 hours, with Bitcoin<\/a> alone accounting for $352 million. Ethereum followed at $241 million, while XRP, ZEC, HYPE, SUI, DOGE, and NEAR recorded the remaining losses.<\/p>\n

Long positions made up more than 90% of all liquidations, a sign that traders had bet on a price recovery that never came \u2014 resulting in forced selling rather than new bearish bets.<\/p>\n

Four-hour liquidations hit $95 million, with longs at $55 million and shorts at $39 million. Across exchanges, Hyperliquid<\/a> and Bybit saw heavy long liquidations, OKX leaned toward short liquidations, and Binance recorded equal long-short positions.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Bitcoin was trading around $73,125 at the time of writing, down 1.70% in 24 hours and 5% over the past week. Its intraday range ran from $72,485 to a high of $75,280.<\/p>\n

A Wider Market Slide<\/h2>\n

The broader crypto market moved in the same direction. Ethereum<\/a> dropped 5.60% over the week, BNB fell 2.50%, and XRP declined 3.15%, according to Coingecko data. Tether slipped just 0.005%.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, gold<\/a> held the top spot globally with a market cap exceeding $31 trillion, based on CompaniesMarketCap<\/a> data. NVIDIA, Google, Apple, and Microsoft followed.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

AI-driven demand has kept NVIDIA<\/a> and Broadcom among the stronger performers in recent months, while gold and silver have attracted buyers looking for stability.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin’s total market cap stands at roughly $1.47 trillion \u2014 significant by most standards, but no longer enough to place it in the top 10 alongside the world’s biggest companies and commodities.<\/p>\n

Bearish Signals Across The Board<\/p>\n

Technical indicators paint a gloomy picture. On the 1-day chart, moving averages from 10 to 200 periods all point to negative momentum, according to TradingView data. The oscillator group is mixed \u2014 the RSI sits at 3 6, which is considered neutral, but two other oscillators are flashing sell signals.<\/p>\n

Whether Bitcoin can climb back into the top 10 will depend heavily on price action in the weeks ahead. Reports indicate a sustained move above $75,000 could help restore market confidence, while a break below key support levels may extend the current slide.<\/p>\n
