$547M in crypto liquidations as Bitcoin price tops $81,000, forcing over 107,000 traders out

Bitcoin's price surged past $81,000, triggering $547 million in liquidations of leveraged crypto positions within 24 hours, according to CoinGlass. Most liquidations were from short positions, totaling $469.19 million, while longs accounted for $57.10 million. Bitcoin led the liquidations with $243.54 million wiped out, followed by Ethereum at $95.66 million and Solana at $36.29 million. Over 107,000 traders were forced to close positions, with the largest single liquidation being an $8.53 million Bitcoin trade on Hyperliquid. This highlights the high volatility and risk in leveraged crypto trading as prices rapidly climb.

As of Sep 19, 2026 02:02 WIB, Bitcoin trades at Rp1.431.917.172 on Pluang, showing a 5.27% gain in the past day. Ethereum is priced at Rp46.264.632 with a 6.40% increase, while Solana leads with a 10.94% rise to Rp1.987.626. Despite the recent surge causing massive liquidations, Pluang users hold Bitcoin for an average of 110 days, indicating longer-term investment horizons.
