Sol，LTC，Sui，Doge＆Pi价格下跌，加密市场崩溃5％

The crypto market experienced a sharp downturn following reports of an Israeli airstrike on Iran early in the morning, sending ripples through global markets and significantly impacting digital asset values.

Within hours, over $1.15 billion in crypto liquidations were triggered across major exchanges. Bitcoin experienced a notable dip, and altcoins suffered equally, if not more, as the initial geopolitical shock swiftly evolved into a widespread market decline.

Solana (SOL)

Solana was among the hardest hit, plummeting over 9% to $144.47. This sharp decline resulted in the liquidation of $52.56 million in open positions, with $46.14 million attributed to long trades.

The market capitalization stood at $75.97 billion, while the 24-hour trading volume on Solana surged by over 21% to $5.71 billion, indicating the intensity of the sell-off. The initial dip quickly escalated into a cascade of liquidations, particularly affecting high-leverage positions.

Dogecoin (DOGE)

Dogecoin, despite its meme-driven nature, was also affected. The memecoin dropped 9.20% to $0.1733. Approximately $26.14 million was liquidated within 24 hours, with long positions accounting for the majority at $24.44 million. The recent mini-revival Dogecoin experienced was quickly erased by the market downturn.

The market capitalization currently sits at $25.94 billion, and the 24-hour trading volume increased to $1.87 billion as traders sought to mitigate losses. The same retail investors who often support Dogecoin were now forced to sell.

Sui (SUI)

Sui experienced one of the most significant percentage declines, dropping nearly 11% to trade at $3. Over $13.4 million worth of positions were liquidated, with $12.6 million being long positions. Sui had been performing well prior to the crash, but its relatively thin order books made it particularly vulnerable.

Its market capitalization decreased to $10.19 billion, and trading volume surged by 79% to $1.66 billion as traders rushed to exit losing positions.

Litecoin (LTC)

Litecoin, generally less volatile during major market events, was also impacted by the downturn. It dropped 7% to $83.48, resulting in $4.13 million in liquidations, with $4.04 million coming from long positions. While Litecoin had maintained relative stability in recent weeks, it followed the broader market decline once it turned negative.

Trading volume increased by 14.07% to $522.97 million, and the market capitalization stood at $6.34 billion as LTC holders moved to reduce exposure.

Pi Network (PI)

Pi Network also experienced a significant downturn. The token saw a 13.82% drop, now priced at $0.5455. Activity surged, with 24-hour volume spiking by over 250%, reaching $213.35 million. This combination of a substantial volume increase and a double-digit price decline signaled panic among traders.

The 24-hour trading volume currently stands at $212 million, a 258% increase, and the market capitalization dropped to $4.06 billion as traders sold positions fearing further losses.

This crypto market crash was driven by geopolitical events, specifically the impact of real-world conflict on digital asset prices.

Following the reported strike, oil prices increased, gold prices rose, and risk assets declined. JPMorgan cautioned that oil prices could reach $120 if the conflict escalates, potentially pushing U.S. inflation back up to 5%. This adds another layer of risk for the crypto market: macroeconomic uncertainty, rising inflation, and reduced flexibility for the Federal Reserve to implement easing policies.

More than 247,000 traders were liquidated during this crash. The largest single liquidation occurred on Binance, involving a BTCUSDT position worth over $201 million. Long traders were heavily impacted across the board. The total crypto market capitalization has decreased by nearly 5% in a single day, now standing at $3.23 trillion.

This event highlights the volatile nature of the crypto market: rapid, unexpected, and significant price swings can occur with little warning.
