Major cryptocurrency players, including Celsius (CRYPTO: CEL), 3AC, and Tether (CRYPTO: USDT), have experienced major liquidations.
What Happened: Given the sharp fall in cryptocurrency prices, lending firm Celsius posted a total of 7,206 WBTC (CRYPTO: WBTC) as collateral to reduce its liquidation price to $16,582. Celsius’ complete position being sold would lead to over $500 billion worth of Bitcoin being sold off in the open market.
