Coverage

which exchanges send liquidations, and how completely

A lower bound. Binance publishes at most one liquidation per symbol per second (the largest) and Bitget also samples, so their numbers undercount cascades. Hyperliquid publishes no public liquidation stream. Not included: Hyperliquid, MEXC, KuCoin (no public all-market liquidation feed is collected). Sizes are quantity × fill price in US dollars. See data coverage.

Liquidations FAQ

How much BTC was liquidated in the last 24 hours?

The headline on the 24h page is the dollar value of futures positions that exchanges force-closed in the 24 hours up to the time stamp shown, from the exchanges' public liquidation feeds. It is recomputed at most every 30 seconds.

What is the difference between long and short liquidations?

A long liquidation closes a position that bet on a rise, after the price fell; a short liquidation closes a bet on a fall, after the price rose. Mostly longs means a sharp drop, mostly shorts a squeeze.

Is every liquidation counted?

No public source sees every liquidation. Binance and Bitget publish only a sample (Binance at most one liquidation per symbol per second), and Hyperliquid has no public liquidation stream, so these totals are a lower bound. See the coverage list on this page and the coverage page.

How do I cite this number?

Use the one-line citation on the page: it carries the UTC time stamp and a link to that day's permanent daily card, which keeps the number after this rolling page has moved on.
