Bitcoin (BTC) long liquidations totaled $18.23 million in the hour ending at 2:53 p.m. ET Friday, Oct. 30, across Binance, Bybit and OKX, while its price fell 0.89% over that interval.

Across Binance, Bybit and OKX, BTC liquidations totaled $18.25 million for the hour. Long liquidations made up $18.23 million of the total, compared with $20,000 in short liquidations, an $18.21 million difference. The reported amount covers those exchanges only and is not a marketwide figure.

BTC began the period at $77,148 and ended at $76,458, a $690 decline. The starting and ending prices cover the same one-hour window as the liquidation count, which ended at 2:53 p.m. ET.

Bitcoin is the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. These numbers describe BTC liquidation activity on three exchanges during the measured hour, so the $18.25 million total is narrower than a marketwide liquidation tally.
