Bitcoin (BTC) saw $8.16 million in long positions liquidated across three exchanges during the hour ending 1:45 p.m. ET (17:45 UTC) Oct. 16, as its price slipped 0.07%. Liquidations totaled $10.81 million across Binance, Bybit and OKX during the one-hour period. Long positions accounted for $8.16 million, while short positions accounted for $2.65 million. Together, the two position categories make up the reported exchange total. The hourly count combines public liquidation data from Binance, Bybit and OKX. The tally covers Binance, Bybit and OKX only, rather than the entire cryptocurrency market, so its total is limited to those venues.
