The entire cryptocurrency market has experienced a steep decline over the past 24 hours, with its total market cap plunging by double digits following a barrage of volatile price swings. Unsurprisingly, this sharp downturn has led to widespread liquidations among multiple assets within the past trading day. Notably, this wave of liquidations has led to over $2.22222 billion being wiped from cryptocurrencies in the past 24 hours. According to Coinglass data, Dogecoin traders have witnessed significant losses, with numbers placing the meme coin among the hardest-hit assets in this liquidation event.

Dogecoin Traders Lose Over $82 Million In 24 Hours

Data from Coinglass reveals that Dogecoin liquidations have been among the most severe in the market over the past 24 hours, as leveraged positions crumbled under the weight of rapid price swings. A closer look at the data shows that the vast majority of these liquidations stemmed from long positions, with bullish traders suffering losses amounting to $69.32 million. These traders, mostly expecting a rally this week or at least a stable market, were caught off guard as Dogecoins price took a sharp turn downward alongside the rest of the market, forcing liquidations and cascading losses.

Interestingly, despite the broader trend leaning toward a price decline, short sellers were not spared from the liquidation frenzy. Data shows that $13.35 million worth of short positions were liquidated, suggesting that brief price spikes occurred during the general downtrend. These momentary surges may have triggered stop losses for some short traders, leading to forced liquidations even as the overall trajectory remained bearish.

Market-Wide Liquidations Top $2.22 Billion Amid High Volatility

The cryptocurrency market has kicked off the new week on a bearish note following a period of consolidation throughout the previous week. Bitcoin, which had maintained relative stability, saw a sharp decline as the weekend came to a close, breaking below the $100,000 mark on Sunday and continued to extend the downside move from there.

Bitcoins decline triggered a broader market sell-off, with several major cryptocurrencies following suit. At the time of writing, the global crypto market cap has dropped by approximately 11% over the past 24 hours and is now at $3 trillion, its lowest level since November 15, 2024. As such, the broader cryptocurrency market has experienced a brutal shakeout in the past 24 hours, with liquidations surpassing $2.22 billion.

Bitcoin and Ethereum traders have taken the biggest hits in this liquidation spree. Bitcoin alone has recorded over $406.96 million in liquidated positions, with the majority being long trades of $341.36 million in the past 24 hours. However, Ethereum traders have experienced the heaviest liquidations, with $601 million in positions wiped out.

With Dogecoin experiencing $82.67 million in liquidations, the aftermath of this sell-off could set the stage for increased volatility alongside other cryptocurrencies in the short term. At the time of writing, Dogecoin is trading at $0.235, down by 22.5% in the past 24 hours.
