About $477 million of these came during the last twelve hours alone.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin and the altcoins, especially, have seen a decline in this period, so it&#8217;s not surprising to see that the liquidations have overwhelmingly affected the long investors. More specifically, the holders betting on a bullish outcome have been involved in more than 90% of the flush.<\/p>\n<p>A mass liquidation event like this latest one is popularly known as a squeeze, and given the sharp imbalance toward the bulls, this particular event would be called a long squeeze. During a squeeze, a large amount of liquidations get triggered at once and feed back into the move that caused them. This unleashes a cascade of further liquidations, making such events quite volatile.<\/p>\n<p>As for which of the individual tokens contributed the most to the long squeeze, the heatmap below shows it.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-762019 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/details.png?w=750&#038;resize=750%2C346\" alt=\"Bitcoin &amp; Crypto \" width=\"750\" height=\"346\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin and Ethereum, the top two cryptocurrencies in terms of market cap, have also come out on top in this list, with the former observing liquidations of $221 million and the latter that of $116 million.<\/p>\n<p>The third-ranked coin, however, hasn&#8217;t been XRP, but rather Solana, which is a couple of spots lower in terms of market cap. SOL&#8217;s $32 million in liquidations may be down to the fact that it has seen a larger decline than XRP.<\/p>\n<p>While Bitcoin has seen a push down during the past day, its downfall actually started much earlier, with the high around $112,000 from May 22nd acting as the top so far.
