Summary
A single Bitcoin long position valued at $8.78 million was liquidated on Binance's perpetual futures market at $76,600, according to Pluang. The report specifies that the event concerned the closure of one BTC perpetual futures contract and does not represent aggregate liquidations or spot market activity. Such forced closures illustrate the risks associated with leveraged positions in volatile crypto markets, and large liquidations can influence market sentiment and short-term price movements.

Pluang's market snapshot as of November 3, 2026 at 11:21 WIB showed broad weakness across its coverage. Of 50 major cryptocurrencies priced on the platform, 5 rose and 44 fell. ONE traded at Rp20, down 5.93%, with 95% of orders on the sell side. ZIL, at Rp32, fell 5.81% with 63% sell orders, while COTI, at Rp178, declined 5.51% with 57% sell orders.

The liquidation coincides with a broader period of pressure in bitcoin markets. Related coverage in the same feed reported that bitcoin briefly fell below its 100-day moving average for the first time since mid-August, trading near $76,887 on November 3, 2026, amid US election uncertainty and testing support around $76,500. Separately, U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows of $398.62 million on November 2, 2026, led by BlackRock's IBIT, marking a second consecutive day of withdrawals, though the pace of outflows narrowed by about 38% in the latest session.
