BTC slid under $110K for the first time in 47 days, triggering ~$895 million liquidations in 24h with over 92% of the liquidations long positions. ETH dropped ~7% from its ATH $4,955 to $4,415, wiping ~$266 million in long/short positions.
Despite weakness, corporate/treasury bids remain active. Strategy added 3,081 BTC worth $343 million, Goldman Sachs made a $194 million purchase of BTC, Remixpoint acquired 41.5 BTC, Metaplanet added 103 BTC, and ETHZilla purchased 7,562 ETH worth $35 million. These treasury inflows highlight selective accumulation into stress.
