- Crypto Leveraged Longs Hit by Reported $700M Hourly Liquidations — this brief
Coinfomania reported that approximately $700 million in long positions were liquidated across the crypto market within a single hour. The outlet described the event as a significant setback tied to continuing volatility and weaker trader sentiment, but supplied no breakdown by exchange, asset, or individual trader category.
The report came amid broadly negative market conditions.
Bitcoin was down 6.18% over 24 hours, while total crypto market capitalization stood at $2.23 trillion. The Fear and Greed index registered 10, placing sentiment in the extreme-fear zone and indicating substantial deterioration in market risk appetite.
JUST provided a comparatively subdued market reference, trading at $0.142677 with a 1.10% decline over 24 hours and a 0.72% decline over seven days. Its $1.14 billion market capitalization contrasted with the steeper 24-hour decline reported for Bitcoin, although the supplied information does not establish any direct link between JST and the liquidation event.
The reported one-hour total shows the scale of forced deleveraging referenced by Coinfomania. The broader weakness in Bitcoin, extreme-fear reading, and liquidation figure together provide context for the event, while future market direction, additional liquidations, and changes in sentiment remain the main indicators to monitor.
Since this brief published about 3 hours ago, JUST (JST) has moved from $0.1427 to $0.1423 — -0.27%.

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 JST ≈ ₦201.31 (about $0.1423), down 1.5% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 4.6% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
