Shiba Inu (SHIB) is experiencing increased liquidation risk as traders close positions amid broader market volatility. The cryptocurrency fell 1.45% to $0.000006273 in the past 24 hours, with $40,230 in bullish positions liquidated, nearly all of the $40,940 total liquidations. This comes as the Federal Reserve’s decision to maintain the federal funds rate pressures the market, leading to $125 million in crypto liquidations, primarily from long positions.
Open interest for Shiba Inu decreased by 6.74% to $60.81 million, and trading volume in the derivatives market dropped nearly 48% to $79 million, indicating a risk-off sentiment. Despite a four-day rise in the Shiba Inu Index, negative funding rates suggest traders are shorting rallies, limiting upward momentum. The SHIB price faces resistance at $0.00000659, with efforts to establish $0.000006 as support.
