Navigating Uncertainty Amid Liquidation Surge
As the SHIB market grappled with uncertainty, investors faced a tumultuous landscape of fluctuating prices and heightened liquidations. In the past 24 hours, SHIB experienced a significant downturn, with prices plummeting by 14.27%.
Adding to market jitters, data from CoinGlass revealed a surge in liquidations totaling a staggering $5,280,000. Of this amount, $4,080,000 stemmed from long liquidations, while $1,200,000 resulted from short liquidations.
Shiba Inu Shows Resilience
Despite the recent dip, SHIB has demonstrated remarkable resilience over the past month, boasting a staggering 194% increase following a substantial rally. However, the influx of SHIB tokens to Gate.io has cast a shadow of doubt over the market’s stability, leaving the SHIB community on edge.
