Andrew Tate opened a highly leveraged 40x long position on Bitcoin worth about $3.79 million but was fully liquidated within 24 hours after Bitcoin's price dropped below his liquidation price. Despite attempts to add margin, Tate lost a total of $95,478. His liquidation was part of a broader market event where $77.90 million in Bitcoin positions were liquidated, mostly long positions, contributing to a sharp price decline and a potential long squeeze. Following the liquidation, Tate opened a 40x short position, adding to the market volatility. Bitcoin's price fell over 2% in 24 hours, trading around $64,730 at the time of reporting.
