According to @rovercrc, over $105,000,000 in crypto positions were liquidated in the past 30 minutes as of Sep 17, 2025 (Source: X post by @rovercrc, Sep 17, 2025). The post did not provide an asset or exchange breakdown, leaving the share across BTC, ETH, and altcoin futures unspecified (Source: X post by @rovercrc, Sep 17, 2025). Forced liquidations occur when leveraged positions fall below maintenance margin and are closed by exchange risk engines, which can accelerate price moves (Source: Binance Academy). Clusters of liquidations are associated with short-term volatility spikes and wider spreads in crypto derivatives order books, heightening execution risk for traders (Source: Kaiko Research).
