Crypto Economy reported that cryptocurrency markets experienced more than $1 billion in liquidations on November 9, with approximately 88.2% of the recorded volume coming from long positions. The report followed a volatile session in which 
Bitcoin reached an intraday low near $74,780 and 
Ethereum registered losses exceeding 7%.
Liquidation totals indicate that positions on the long side accounted for the overwhelming majority of the forced closures reported during the episode. Crypto Economy characterized the session as highly volatile, while the absence of additional outlet coverage means no independently reported liquidation total or breakdown was available for comparison.
Live market data places Bitcoin at $74,771, down 0.58% over 24 hours and 2.91% over seven days. Its $1.5 trillion market capitalization remains dominant within a broader crypto market valued at $2.56 trillion, which is currently flat despite the recent losses.
Ethereum trades at $2,120.89, down 1.16% over 24 hours and 5.99% over seven days, with a $259.22 billion market capitalization. The broader market’s flat reading and a Fear & Greed Index of 32, which indicates fear, provide context for the volatility surrounding the liquidation episode.
