Liquidation

Liquidation occurs when a trader’s collateral is no longer sufficient to cover their leveraged position’s losses, triggering an automated forced closure by the exchange's liquidation engine. It is a critical risk-management mechanism that ensures the solvency of lending protocols and derivative platforms. In 2026, the focus has moved toward MEV-resistant liquidation models that protect users from predatory "cascades." This tag provides essential information on maintenance margins, health factors, and how to avoid liquidation in high-volatility environments.

Perpetual DEX in testing with cross‑chain liquidity and ADL

Perpetual DEX in testing with cross‑chain liquidity and ADL

The post Perpetual DEX in testing with cross‑chain liquidity and ADL appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Sunperp, a new perpetual DEX being tested on the Tron blockchain, promises millisecond executions, cross-chain liquidity aggregation, and an integrated auto-deleveraging (ADL) system. Justin Sun reshared the announcement on X, inviting users to try it and highlighting dedicated incentives, while numerous economic details and operational metrics remain to be confirmed. According to the data collected by on-chain analysts and industry reports, in May 2025 TRON hosted over 75 billion USDT, with the network recording over 8.3 million daily transactions and approximately 306 million active accounts, a context that justifies the interest in USDT-collateralized derivatives. Market analysts following perpetual DEX also note that the massive availability of USDT on TRON facilitates cross-chain arbitrage operations and reduces costs for market makers. What is Sunperp and what it brings differently to Tron Sunperp is a platform perp DEX that uses USDT as collateral, with profits and losses calculated in USDT. The architecture separates matching, executed off-chain to maximize speed, from settlement, recorded on-chain to ensure transparency of trading results. In this context, the debut announcement was originally reported by Jamie Redman; the team also states that, while in the testing phase, the core contracts are non-upgradable. Main Technical Features Order types: market, limit (with FOK – Fill-or-Kill, GTC – Good-Till-Cancelled, and IOC – Immediate-or-Cancel modes), post-only orders, plan orders, trailing, and TWAP (Time-Weighted Average Price). Use of multi-source oracles to determine the mark price employed in the calculation of profits and liquidations. Primary collateral: USDT, with P&L calculated in the same currency. Core contracts declared non-upgradable in an environment still in testing. Cross-chain liquidity: less slippage and tighter spreads The protocol claims to aggregate liquidity flows from various networks in order to increase market depth and improve order execution, thereby reducing slippage and spreads in large-size trades. However, the actual effect will depend…

Why Crypto Market is Down Today? BTC Rejection at $117k, ETH Hit by Liquidations

Why Crypto Market is Down Today? BTC Rejection at $117k, ETH Hit by Liquidations

The post Why Crypto Market is Down Today? BTC Rejection at $117k, ETH Hit by Liquidations appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The post Why Crypto Market is Down Today? BTC Rejection at $117k, ETH Hit by Liquidations appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News The cryptocurrency market is ailing under pressure today, with the market cap dropping 1.95% to $3.96 trillion. Trading volume stands at $135.69 billion, reflecting reduced participation compared to recent sessions. Bitcoin dominance has edged higher to 57.6%, while Ethereum holds 13.1%. The Altcoin Season Index stands at 67/100, indicating a partial rotation into BTC. Sentiment remains muted, with the Fear & Greed Index at a neutral 47, while the average crypto RSI at 36.18 suggests the broader market is in oversold territory. Why the Market is Falling? The decline comes from a mix of regulatory pressure, leveraged positioning, and weakness across major altcoins. Regulatory Pivot \Markets reacted negatively to the SEC’s updated ETF guidelines issued on September 21. While they clarified the framework for crypto funds, the stricter compliance checks weighed on sentiment, especially for altcoins. In parallel, the U.S. Treasury opened a comment period for the GENIUS Act, which may impose reserve rules on stablecoins. These updates raised caution about XRP and Solana ETF approvals expected later this year. Traders are closely watching the SEC’s ruling on Grayscale’s multi-asset ETF due by September 30. Derivatives Overhang Perpetual open interest surged 18% to $929.3 billion, while futures hit $3.9 billion. However, funding rates turned slightly negative at -0.0038%, pointing to excessive long leverage. This set the stage for a flush-out. The correlation between Bitcoin and Nasdaq-100 dropped to 0.55, weakening macro support. Analysts warn that a break below the $3.93T total market cap level (50-day EMA) could trigger further algorithmic selling. Source: CoinGlass Altcoin Weakness Altcoins are bearing the brunt of today’s move. Dogecoin slumped 7.5% as whale accumulation couldn’t offset retail selling. OpenLedger plunged 15% following an…
