Cryptocurrency liquidations exceed $150 billion in 2025, reports CoinGlass
Source: Yellow Original Title: Cryptocurrency Liquidations Surpass $150 Billion in 2025, Reports CoinGlass
Original Link: https://yellow.com/es/news/las-liquidaciones-cripto-superan-los-150000-millones-de-ddollars-in-2025-reports-coinglass Cryptocurrency liquidations reached unprecedented levels in 2025, with total nominal values exceeding $150 billion across all exchanges. Bitcoin and other digital assets recorded average daily liquidations of between $400 million and $500 million.
What happened: record liquidations
According to a new annual analysis of the CoinGlass derivatives market, the derivatives market experienced its largest liquidation event in a single day in history on October 10, when the combined closing of short and long positions reached $19 billion during a sharp correction in Bitcoin’s price.
The cryptocurrency plummeted days after reaching a new all-time high above $126,000.
CoinGlass data suggests that the actual scale of the October liquidation event likely approached between $30 billion and $40 billion, considering the timing of platform disclosures and market maker feedback. Long positions accounted for approximately 85% to 90% of the liquidated derivatives bets during the event.
Most daily liquidations remained in the tens to hundreds of millions of dollars throughout 2025, mainly reflecting routine margin adjustments and short-term position closures in high-leverage trading environments.
The year recorded a total derivatives trading volume of $85.70 trillion on centralized exchanges.
Why it matters: market structure
The October deleveraging event represented several multiples of the second-largest short squeeze by liquidations in the previous market cycle, according to CoinGlass analysis.
Trading volume surged to $748.3 billion on October 10, nearly triple the annual average of $264.5 billion.
The report indicated that derivatives trading became the central battleground for price discovery and leveraged speculation during market acceleration phases. Bitcoin is currently trading around $88,180, up more than 2% in the last week.
