The cryptocurrency price crash on October 15, 2026 liquidated nearly a billion dollars of leveraged trading positions. Bitcoin is trading around $80,800, Ethereum near $2,350 and XRP around $1.30 at the time of review.

According to CoinDesk, investors' concern about the Federal Reserve's next interest rate decision has increased the selling pressure. According to CoinGlass data, the total liquidations of the 24-hour market reached about $951 million.

According to the data reviewed by Sefir Arjan, about 483 million dollars of positions have been closed in Bitcoin and Ethereum futures only.

Of this figure, about 286 million dollars were allocated to Ethereum and 197 million dollars to Bitcoin. Therefore, Ethereum accounted for nearly 60% of the liquidations of these two currencies.

Also, about $31 million of Solana trades and nearly $19 million of ZEC positions were liquidated.

Leveraged trades are more vulnerable during extreme volatility; Because the reduction of the guarantee balance can cause the forced closing of the position by the exchange.

Analysts believe that the high volume of liquidations indicates the market's vulnerability to sudden fluctuations. Forced selling pressure can intensify the price drop and even traders with correct analysis face losses. For Iranian users who are active in the futures market, it is very important to reduce the leverage, observe the loss limit and avoid emotional entry. The increase in liquidation alone is not a sign of the end of the downward trend.
