By now, however, the flagship crypto has recovered to the $35,800 area, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
Earlier this year, on Jan. 4, a whopping $190 million worth of Bitcoin in futures contracts was also liquidated on Binance in merely 10 minutes, causing Bitcoin to roll back from the $34,000 zone back to $30,000.
