According to the data, nearly 64% of all futures traders were betting on falling prices.

Longs worth a little more than $45 million were liquidated. Liquidations occur when a trader’s leveraged position is forced to be closed by an exchange as a safety mechanism due to a partial or total loss of the trader’s initial margin.

This is most common in futures trading, which only tracks asset prices rather than spot trading, which involves traders owning the actual assets.

Bitcoin prices spiked after comments from Fed

During Asian hours on Wednesday, Bitcoin climbed to $43,000, while major altcoins soared as high as 19 percent at the time of writing.

The increase occurred shortly after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell stated that the agency will combat the current high inflation environment, implying that the central bank may reduce its balance sheet more quickly this year.
