According to the recent data published by Coinglass, crypto liquidations jumped dramatically on 19 September after Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) dropped below key price levels. In the past 24 hours, ETH suffered the most as more than $150 million worth of long Ethereum trading positions got liquidated.

Ethereum Merge went live last week with support from the crypto community. However, the digital currency has lost approximately 20% of its value since The Merge on 15 September. In terms of weekly price action, Ethereum has now lost more than 25% of its value in the last seven days.
“Ethereum’s merge day has justifiably been the overarching trend, even with its now concluded and relatively drama-free expected outcome. Over the past year, ETH has seen less interest, but this event will propel volatility for the near future,” Santiment noted in a recent Tweet.
