💥 Nearly $1 billion in crypto liquidated in 24 hours

CoinGlass data:
• $972 million wiped out, 92% of it from long positions
• More than 182,000 traders liquidated
• Largest single liquidation: a $12 million BTC long, liquidated on Binance at around $80,200
• $292 million in ETH liquidations, $200 million in BTC liquidations

📉 Stock markets weren’t spared either:
• Nasdaq -1.9%, with chip stocks leading the decline
• South Korea’s KOSPI nearly -9%, triggering a trading halt—its 10th this year
• Nikkei 225 -5%

🎯 The catalyst: U.S. inflation came in higher than expected
The odds of a Fed rate hike on October 27–28 rose to around 32%
Higher interest rates → lower risk appetite → crypto takes the hit first

Overnight, long traders were wiped out.
