Summary of Total Liquidations.
According to data from several aggregators, total crypto futures market liquidations over the past three days reached around $1.55 billion.
On October 7, liquidated long positions totaled around $431 million, while short positions amounted to about $43 million. Total liquidations that day were around $473 million.
On October 8, liquidations of long positions surged to around $846 million, while short positions reached about $100 million. Total liquidations were recorded at around $946 million.
On October 9, long-position liquidations fell to around $54 million, while short positions reached about $80 million. Total liquidations that day were around $134 million.
Overall, total long-position liquidations over the three days reached around $1.33 billion, while short-position liquidations were about $223 million.
At an exchange rate of around Rp17,890 per US dollar, these figures show the scale of pressure in the market. Most liquidations came from long positions, especially on October 7 and 8, indicating that falling prices forced many traders betting on a rise to close their positions.
Coins with the Largest Liquidations.
Based on estimated 24-hour data for October 9–10, 2026, Bitcoin and Ethereum continued to dominate futures market liquidations. They were followed by Solana, Zcash, and several highly volatile altcoins.
Bitcoin ranked first. Long liquidations were estimated at $9.3 million, while short liquidations were around $19 million to $24 million. Total liquidations were estimated at $28 million to $34 million.
Ethereum came next. Long liquidations ranged from $8.4 million to $8.5 million, while short liquidations reached around $11 million to $16 million. The total was estimated at $20 million to $25 million.
Solana recorded around $3.2 million to $3.4 million in long liquidations and about $3.1 million in short liquidations. Total liquidations ranged from $6.3 million to $6.6 million.
Zcash also saw substantial liquidations. Liquidated long positions were estimated at $1.4 million to $1.5 million, while short positions were around $2.8 million to $3.6 million. The total was in the range of $4.3 million to $5 million.
Several other altcoins, such as RLC, STRK, KAIA, MAGIC, and NEAR, also showed relatively high liquidation activity. The figures varied depending on price movements and market conditions for each asset.
Liquidation Activity Over Three Days.
On October 7 and 8, the market experienced a major wave of long-position liquidations. This indicates that many traders using leverage to take long positions suffered losses as prices fell.
On October 9, the situation began to change. Short-position liquidations were higher than long-position liquidations. This shift may indicate an upward price movement putting pressure on traders betting on a decline, although it is not enough to confirm a trend reversal.
What to Watch.
Liquidation data from different platforms may vary because exchange coverage, data collection methods, and reporting periods are not always the same. The available figures may also not cover every transaction in the market.
In addition, 24-hour liquidation data for individual coins is not the same as cumulative liquidations over three days. Therefore, the figures for each coin above should be used as an indication of recent activity, not as definitive totals for October 7–9.
Conclusion.
Over the past three days, the greatest pressure came from long-position liquidations, especially on October 7 and 8. Bitcoin and Ethereum were the assets with the highest liquidation activity, while Solana and Zcash also saw notable movements.
The shift in liquidation dominance from long to short positions on October 9 suggests that market pressure is beginning to change. However, to determine the direction of future price movements, traders still need to monitor trading volume, open interest, funding rates, and the price structure of each coin.
