A sudden flashover event occurred in the cryptocurrency market. According to data from chain analysis firm Coinglass, a massive liquidation of $57.5683 million took place across the entire market within the last four hours. Among these, multi-position (long positions) accounted for $51.8235 million, and short positions saw an explosive decrease of $5.7448 million.

During this flashover phase, Bitcoin (BTC) was hit hardest, with $17.64 million in long positions forcibly liquidated. Subsequently, Ethereum (ETH) also saw a significant liquidation of $14.79 million. Currently, BTC is trading at $70,390, and ETH at $2,130, with short-term volatility significantly impacting market participants.

Such flashover events suggest rapid liquidity fluctuations and chain reactions of stop-loss liquidations in the derivatives market. For market participants, rapid liquidations in these situations are extremely risky and require close attention.
