Liquidation frenzy continues to shape the crypto market landscape. Data from Coinglass reveals a staggering $150 billion in combined long and short liquidations throughout the year. What does that mean day-to-day? We're looking at roughly $400–500 million in daily leverage flushes hitting the market. These numbers highlight just how volatile leverage trading remains, with traders getting wiped out regularly as positions swing against them. Whether it's sudden price swings or liquidation cascades, the leverage game keeps proving itself to be high-risk territory.

Leverage is playing with fire. 400-500 million USD are wiped out every day. How can we continue like this? It's truly crazy.

$15 billion in clearing? How many people would get liquidated? With daily leverage of 400-500 million coming in, isn't this just a harvesting machine for retail investors?
