Cardano Faces Major Liquidations Amid Crypto Market Downturn

Cardano Faces Major Liquidations
The crypto market is in turmoil after a relatively calm trading session, with total liquidations reaching $495 million in the past 24 hours, according to CoinGlass data. During this period, 130,553 traders were liquidated, with the largest single order valued at $17.15 million on the Bitfinex exchange. The biggest loser in the session accounted for $301.39 million in liquidations, with long positions contributing $186 million and shorts $115 million.

Cardano Under Pressure

Cardano (ADA) emerged as one of the major losers, with its liquidations amounting to $11.85 million. Of that, $8.73 million came from long traders and $3.12 million from shorts, reflecting a significant liquidation imbalance of 94%. Despite previous accumulation pushing ADA’s price near the $1 mark, recent activity has reversed this trend. Currently, ADA is trading at $0.819, down 7.3% in the last 24 hours, while its trading volume has decreased by 11.5% to $2.6 billion.

Investor Reassessment and Outlook

This downturn comes on the heels of the U.S. government finalizing documents for a new crypto reserve, a move that had initially sparked optimism for Cardano. However, the current sell-off, driven by unwinding of leveraged positions, has left traders reassessing their exposure. With ADA now ranking as the ninth-biggest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, trailing behind Dogecoin, continued investor caution seems likely. Market participants are closely monitoring key support levels, with further declines possible if sentiment does not improve.
