Since 2025, the market has liquidated a total of $154.64 billion in long and short positions. Just on October 11 alone, the volume reached $19.1 billion, accounting for 12%.

Interestingly, this data comes from a well-known on-chain monitoring platform's public statistics. However, industry insiders reveal that the actual liquidation scale could be much higher—at least three times the official figures. This means the real market volatility might be much more intense than what we see.

By the way, how are your positions holding up in this wave of market movement? Were any of you wiped out during this turbulence?

Damn, the actual liquidation is three times the reported amount. It turns out we're only seeing the tip of the iceberg. --- On October 11th, I almost got wiped out. Luckily, I cut my position early; otherwise, I would have been done for. --- On-chain data is so unreliable. I always thought it was accurate. --- More than three times. How fierce must the real market be? No wonder my heart couldn't handle these past couple of days. --- After being liquidated once, I now set stop-losses. No more going in barehanded.

Wow, three times? That means the actual numbers are terrifying. No wonder the market has been so crazy these past two days. I've been wiped out once, and now I don't dare to hold a heavy position anymore. My mentality is completely shattered. I don't even trust the data anymore. Those on-chain platforms feel like they're just making things up. On October 11th, I watched the market directly break through the defenses, and I still haven't recovered. Such deep hidden volatility? It feels like we're all being kept in the dark.

Hmm... more than three times the actual number? Then the candlestick charts we see are completely superficial. --- 191 billion gone in a day, I was so damn late that day, and I was actually glad I dodged it. Thinking about it now, it's really ironic. --- The data on on-chain platforms differ so much from reality, what kind of technical analysis is that? It's all just blind boxes. --- Not cleared out, but not making any profit either. Just leave it at that. --- So the official statistics are actually a joke? Then I also need to multiply my stop-loss points by three and recalculate. --- This wave of volatility has liquidated a bunch of people, but thinking about it, it makes sense—the market is just like this. --- My position has long been gone, I've shifted to watching, let these people continue to liquidate each other.

Haha, is the real number three times higher? Then what we see is just the tip of the iceberg. No wonder the market has been so crazy these days. --- Damn, 19.1 billion just disappeared in one day. This liquidation machine is too fierce. My small position is trembling. --- So official data can't be trusted at all, the actual volatility is much more intense? No wonder I always feel like I can't get the timing right. --- Got wiped out in one go, now just watching others' positions plunge. That's the joy of crypto, haha. --- What does three times mean? Does that mean the actual liquidation is over 500 billion? This number is a bit hard to believe. --- In this market, I choose to lie flat and let the aggressive ones get liquidated. Anyway, I knew I should run as soon as the liquidation news came out. --- 19.1 billion a day only accounts for 12%. How fierce is this round of liquidations? It feels like not many people can walk away unscathed.

Hey, the official data is three times higher? If these numbers were really that crazy, they would have gone bankrupt long ago haha Was cleaned out once, now it just looks stagnant If the real volatility is this fierce, we need to be more cautious, can't just look at the surface data That October wave was too brutal, my friend got liquidated directly Brothers, did you buy the dip? Could this be an opportunity instead? With such outrageous data, I feel like I need to do my own calculations and not just rely on those platforms

Something's off. The real numbers are more than three times higher? Doesn't that mean the data we're seeing is just the tip of the iceberg? Damn. Half of the position was eaten up. Luckily, I didn't clear it all. Just consider it tuition fees.
