Source: TradingView<\/p>\n<p>Recall that bitcoin had recovered a lot of ground following last week\u2019s calamity and even challenged $116,000 earlier this week. However, it faced an immediate and strong rejection at that point, which <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/aster-plunges-by-double-digits-bitcoin-slides-toward-110k-market-watch\/\">pushed<\/a> it south to the crucial resistance at $110,000.<\/p>\n<p>Although that line held at first, the bears were a lot more persistent and <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-crashes-below-109k-as-trump-putin-meeting-triggers-600m-in-liquidations\/\">drove the asset below<\/a> it yesterday evening. That was just the start of yet another deeper correction, however. In the past several hours, BTC has registered another leg down and is close to breaking below $105,000, which is the first line of defense, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CW8900\/status\/1979091502086115742\">according<\/a> to some analysts. The next such buying wall is formed at around $100,000.<\/p>\n<p>Other market observers have turned completely bearish on the asset. Captain Faibik <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoFaibik\/status\/1979089300982526005\">claimed<\/a> that the 2024\/2025 bull run is over, and they expect a 50% correction in the midterm.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, the altcoins are getting obliterated in such occasions. Binance Coin, for example, which set a new all-time high just days ago, has plunged by over 12% in the past 24 hours to under $1,050 as of press time. ETH is down by more than 6%, XRP\u2019s losses exceed 7%, and the landscape with the lower caps is even more painful.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAltcoins are under pressure as liquidity continues to rotate back into Bitcoin and stablecoins amid risk-off sentiment. This latest dip reflects declining speculative appetite after last week\u2019s macro data, thin order books amplifying volatility, and renewed uncertainty around regulatory headlines impacting smaller-cap tokens,\u201d said Wenny C, COO at SynFutures, in a statement to CryptoPotato.<\/p>\n<p>The crash in the past 24 hours has impacted over-leveraged traders once again, with almost 290,000 such market participants getting wrecked. The total value of liquidations is on the rise again, hitting $1.1 billion, according to CoinGlass.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-17-111123.png\"><\/a>Crypto Liquidations on CoinGlass<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/crypto-market-bloodbath-over-1b-in-liquidations-as-bitcoin-altcoins-collapse\/\">Crypto Market Bloodbath: Over $1B in Liquidations as Bitcoin, Altcoins Collapse<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The bears are back in the crypto town, which is evident by yet another substantial price correction from essentially every digital asset.
