Conclusion first: in the past hour, $2.52 million was liquidated, with shorts accounting for 56%. But among AIN’s single-coin data is the most striking: out of $340,000, 93% is shorts. People who chased the sell-off get squeezed out first.
AIN was liquidated in 152 positions: shorts totaled $318,000, while longs were only $25,000—there’s a wide gap in direction. WLD and SAND follow closely, clearing $284,000 and $241,000 respectively, suggesting this hour wasn’t a case of just one coin being hit.
The largest single order was a long position that exceeded Bitcoin by $108,000, and if the rebound wasn’t taken, it would get force-liquidated. Although AIN’s amount isn’t the largest, its number of trades ranks among the top—its short-term leverage density is higher.
