  • Crypto Tokens Drop 6% Amid Weekend Liquidations, Ether Loses $385 Million
    January 31, 2026, 1:23 PM EST. Cryptocurrency markets continued their weekend decline as major tokens and high-beta altcoins faced significant liquidations. Ether, the second-largest cryptocurrency, experienced approximately $385 million in futures liquidations within 24 hours, the highest among assets, following a sharp price drop tied to a broader risk-off sentiment. Bitcoin liquidations reached about $188 million, with Solana and XRP each seeing over $45 million wiped out. The selloff predominantly affected long positions, reflecting traders caught on the wrong side after weeks of range-bound trading. Tokenized commodities like blockchain-based silver also faced notable liquidations, highlighting crypto's growing role in macro trading during stress periods. Overall, nearly $974 million was lost, forcing over 240,000 traders out. Prices fell, with Bitcoin nearing the low $80,000s and altcoins declining faster due to leverage sensitivity, marking a mechanical market reset rather than panic.
