Yesterday(January 8), the crypto world was in turmoil. In the past 24 hours, the total liquidation of contracts across the network reached $461 million, involving 127,700 traders, with long positions accounting for the majority at $416 million, and short positions at $45 million. Behind this data, it reflects the market participants' emotional fluctuations and risk pressure.

More importantly, the market trend is worth paying attention to. CryptoQuant CEO bluntly stated: capital inflows are drying up, and Bitcoin is likely to enter consolidation rather than continue its upward trend in the first quarter of 2026. This judgment is not unfounded. Currently, gold and silver prices are soaring, and many funds are flowing into stocks and precious metals, while the new capital entering Bitcoin has significantly slowed down.

Geopolitical factors have also become disruptors. The situations in Iran, Greenland issues, Venezuela risks, and other factors are emerging one after another, lowering the market’s risk appetite. Meanwhile, everyone is waiting for the US December non-farm payrolls data — this data is related to the Federal Reserve’s future interest rate policy and directly influences market momentum.

461 million liquidation, the longs are getting hammered again The idea of capital exhaustion sounds a bit alarming, why are gold and silver soaring so quickly Waiting for non-farm payroll data again, is this time really going to drop? Consolidation? Please don't, I was still hoping for a turnaround Geopolitical tensions are stirring up trouble every day, when will it finally settle down

Once again, liquidation. This time 461 million? Longs really can't play anymore. I've heard "funds are exhausted" too many times, but I don't believe it. Geopolitical disruptions? Honestly, just an excuse. Cowards looking for an excuse. Before the non-farm payroll data is released, it's all fake. Just wait and watch the show, everyone. Gold and silver rising is really money-making. No wonder Bitcoin has been quiet. Consolidation? I bet it will surge again next month. Anyway, it's the fate of the retail investors.

It's another day of getting chopped up, with 461 million liquidated—hilarious. Longs are really miserable. I've said it before—funds are exhausted. Are you still dreaming of a 2026 bull market? Wake up, everyone. Once geopolitical issues flare up, risk appetite is gone. That's the reality. When non-farm payroll data comes out, it will probably drop again.

Another liquidation? My friend went all-in yesterday and now he's completely wiped out. Funds are flowing into precious metals. Bitcoin's recent move is quite risky. The bulls got harvested overnight. Can't enjoy the gains for long, right? Once the non-farm payroll data is released, that will be the real highlight. With such a chaotic geopolitical situation, only true warriors dare to go all-in.

It's another wave of liquidations, longs are being slaughtered, and this time it's pretty intense. Capital depletion? Everyone's rushing to trade gold. Is Bitcoin really going to cool down? Listen, the real highlight is when the non-farm payroll data is released. It'll probably trigger another bloody storm. Geopolitical tensions are ongoing every day. I just want to know when things will warm up. $461 million in liquidations, that number is terrifying. Brothers are still going all-in.

461 million liquidation, hilarious, another day of long positions being slaughtered Funds exhausted? Told you so earlier, stop hyping the bull market, precious metals are the real winners No one dares to move before the non-farm payroll data is released, just wait and see Geopolitical tensions stir things up, BTC has to kneel, it's really exciting to play This time the bulls have to eat dirt, feels great
