Bitcoin positions liquidated total over $41 million. The largest amount of long liquidations were spotted on Bitfinex ($28.98 million), Okex ($44.68 million) and Binance ($22.47 million).

A liquidation takes place automatically when a trader loses their initial margin on a position.

By now, the leading digital currency has recovered to $29,191, and Ethereum is changing hands at $1,841.

As Bitcoin keeps holding in the $29,000 zone, Santiment has tweeted that a certain number of major whale wallets keep going up.

These addresses contain between 100 BTC and 1,000 BTC. These wallets have been acquiring more Bitcoin since late January, when the price plummeted to the $33,500 area. Compared to three months ago, nearly 190 new wallets have been added here.

From the historical point of view, Santiment says, the rising amount of this type of BTC address shows a correlation with the price as both begin to go up.
