Liquidations Top $1 Billion As Musk-Trump Rift Goes Public

A late-night Twitter spat between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk sparked fresh uncertainty in global markets, sending major cryptocurrencies tumbling and wiping out nearly $1 billion in leveraged bets. Bitcoin dropped 1.6% to $102,864.

Data from CoinGlass shows that traders lost $988 million in liquidations — of which $888 million were long positions — indicative of a wipeout in bullish positions.

Exchanges like Bybit and Binance saw the biggest hits, with Bybit alone accounting for nearly $354 million in liquidations.

The liquidations largely hit major tokens, with bitcoin leading the pack at over $342 million liquidated in the past 24 hours, according to CoinGlass data.

Uber Eyes Stablecoins for Future Payments, Says CEO Dara Khosrowshahi

Speaking at the Bloomberg Tech Summit in San Francisco on Thursday, CEO Dara Khosrowshahi confirmed the company’s interest in blockchain-based stable currencies.

“I think stablecoin is one of the more interesting instantiations of crypto that has a practical benefit other than crypto as a store of value,” said Khosrowshahi.

He emphasized that stablecoins offer tangible utility, particularly for global companies like Uber, by lowering international money transfer costs and increasing payment efficiency. Khosrowshahi made it clear that while Bitcoin remains a “proven commodity,” its volatility and speculative nature make it less suitable for day-to-day transactions on Uber’s platform.
