🤯 Coinglass: In 2025, forced liquidations exceeded $150,000,000,000.
Cryptocurrency derivatives market trading volume reached $85,700,000,000,000. The peak occurred on October 10th – both in daily trading volume ($748b) and liquidations ($19b).
Important clarification: $150b is the total volume of forced liquidations, not the actual losses of traders. When a trader uses 100x leverage and invests $1,000, they open a position worth $100,000. If the price moves against them and the position is liquidated, the $100,000 will be recorded in the statistics, although the actual loss will be approximately $1,000 (their own money).
