What Caused the Bloodbath?
While the exact cause is still under debate, early analysis suggests a combination of factors:
- •Mass liquidations: As prices dropped, leveraged positions got wiped out, triggering a cascade effect.
- •Poor liquidity: Some coins had low order book depth, making price slippage worse.
- •Technical glitches: Some exchanges reported delays or outages, worsening trader reactions.
The crash serves as a harsh reminder of crypto’s volatility and the risks involved in trading and investing without proper risk management.
