The crypto market showed active movement during the daily summary as Bitcoin ($BTC) maintained $84,164 while Ethereum ($ETH) surpassed $1,858 representing 61.8% and 8.3% market dominance. Despite its vast $3.01 trillion market value, the sector witnessed substantial price fluctuations due to leveraged trading and market forces which triggered $133.87 billion in total liquidations within the last 24-hour period.
Notable Price Movements
$EOS price declined by 4.6% possibly because the network integrated with the HyperEVM ecosystem dedicated 38 percent of its HYPE token supply toward incentive targets.
The $GRASS price dropped 7.2% because Binance Futures added it using 50x leverage, although this typically triggers a speculative response. $CRO declined 3.1% even though Cronos integrated Chainlink price feeds to boost DeFi applications but possibly due to market-wide adjustments.
The privacy concerns related to privacy coins caused $ZEC to drop by 7.4% while $WAL decreased by 2.4% before the Sui network hosted the Walrus Protocol mainnet launch leading to $SUI increasing by 6%.
High Liquidations Reflect Market Volatility
The crypto market’s unstable nature became apparent through major positions that were forcibly sold. Bitcoin recorded liquidations worth $1.83 million because non-U.S.-made automobile tariff decisions made by President Trump created market instability worldwide.
The $1.89 million worth of $ETH suffered liquidations because the Hoodi testnet deployed Pectra successfully which aimed to increase Ethereum scalability and seemed to cause speculative market actions.
The crypto market showed major liquidation events including $ACT at $879.29 million together with $SOL at $879.04 million and $XRP at $834.18 million which demonstrates the high dangers of leveraged trading in a BTC-dominant sector that controls 57.57% dominance.
Market Sentiment and Outlook
The present value of 20 on the Fear & Greed Index signals that crypto market participants demonstrate significant caution because of this market instability. Despite this behavior, the market still demonstrates high levels of activity because it generated $527.07 billion in trading volume over 24 hours.
PHOENIX Group stands at the forefront of this developing cryptocurrency market by monitoring its opportunities and security risks which continue to expand through innovations at HyperEVM and Cronos and the imminent launch of Walrus Protocol.
