OKX liquidates $2.38M Bitcoin short at $82,580 in a single event

OKX liquidated a $2.38 million short position in Bitcoin at a price of $82,580 on October 12. This occurred in an OKX Bitcoin perpetual futures contract, where a short position profits if the asset price falls. Liquidation means the exchange forcibly closed the position because the trader's collateral no longer covered the required margin. This event highlights the risks of leveraged trading in volatile crypto markets.
