The cryptocurrency market was shaken by sharp declines on Binance early this morning. Many altcoins briefly misplaced over 90% of their worth. IoTeX (IOTX), particularly, briefly dropped to $0, whereas Cosmos (ATOM) equally plummeted to zero.
BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes provided a important evaluation of the crash. He acknowledged that market rumors recommend that the sudden drop was triggered by the automated liquidation of collateral tied to cross-margined positions by some main centralized exchanges (CEX).

Arthur Hayes made the next assertion:
“Phrase on the road is that many altcoins fell sharply as main CEXs routinely liquidated collateral tied to cross margin positions. Congrats to those that purchased on the dip, we cannot see these ranges once more for a very long time.”
In line with specialists, such sudden “flash crashes” are usually brought on by an absence of liquidity, algorithmic buying and selling, and the chain liquidation of leveraged positions. Hayes’s statements recommend that this market crash might have been brought on by an automatic liquidation chain slightly than a scientific error or manipulation.
