Currently, the cryptocurrency market stands at more than $640 million worth of liquidations in the last 24 hours. Bitcoin bulls are experiencing a significant spike in liquidations after BTC reached the local low of $54,000.

Though the first cryptocurrency has recovered back up by $700 USD already, the daily loss still remains at around 10% with $102 million worth of liquidations appearing in the last few hours.
