In just 24 hours, more than 500 million dollars in long positions were liquidated, dragging down Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP. This brutal wave revealed the fragility of a market fueled by leverage, where technical indicators, pushed to the background by optimism, suddenly regain all their importance. A return to reality is necessary for investors.
