Over the last 24 hours, crypto-tracked futures registered over $1.14 billion worth of liquidations as the market sell-off became more severe on Sunday. The bloodbath was catalyzed by a stronger Japanese Yen and rumors of market maker Jump Trading liquidating its crypto business.

Liquidated bets on Ethereum (ETH) futures totaled over $340 million. Losses on Bitcoin (BTC) futures led the pack to almost $420 million. Futures contracts that tracked Solana (SOL), Dogecoin (DOGE), XRP, and Pepe (PEPE) caused $75 million in liquidations.
