Ether (ETH) saw $12.99 million in long liquidations in the hour ending at 3:40 p.m. ET Oct. 18 (19:40 UTC), within $13.01 million in total liquidations.

TokenPost’s tally combines public liquidation data collected directly from Binance, Bybit and OKX. The $13.01 million figure applies to those three exchanges only and is not a marketwide total. Long positions made up $12.99 million of the reported amount, while short positions accounted for $20,000. The measurement covers the hour ending at 3:40 p.m. ET.

Ether traded at $2,363 at the start of that hour and $2,336 at the end, a 1.16% drop. The price change and liquidation figures cover the same interval. Most of the reported liquidation value came from long positions during an hour when Ether’s price moved lower.

Ether is the second-largest crypto asset by market capitalization. The tally’s $13.01 million total reflects liquidation activity across Binance, Bybit and OKX during that specific hour, while the price comparison records Ether’s move over the same period.
