- Roughly $19–20 billion in positions were liquidated Friday in one of crypto’s largest single‑day wipeouts after the tariff shock triggered cascade selling.
- Binance reported a localized USDe depeg and other pricing anomalies during the crash, announced $283 million in compensation, and outlined new safety measures.
- Ethereum recovered faster than many rivals, with analysts citing ETF demand and on‑chain accumulation including BitMine’s purchase of 41,421 ETH.
- Volatility signals remain elevated as options hedging picks up and some commentators allege coordinated exploitation, a claim that remains unconfirmed.
