Deep Dive
1. Latest Wave
The most recent liquidation sweep shows Binance at the top by venue share, with the largest single liquidation on Binance at about $11.58 million. CoinDesk noted that Binance, Bybit, and Hyperliquid together accounted for nearly three quarters of total liquidations in that 24-hour window, with long positions dominating the losses, reflecting crowded bullish positioning that unwound quickly during a drawdown. See the market update.
If you track leverage stress, Binance remains the primary venue to watch for cascading liquidations during sharp moves.
2. Earlier This Week
Earlier in the week, another deleveraging wave also showed Binance leading by dollar value. In that event, Binance saw about $144.6 million in liquidations, followed by Hyperliquid at $115.8 million and Bybit at $109.3 million. Together, the three venues comprised roughly 72% of the unwinds. Details are in this roundup.
The leadership by venue was consistent across separate flushes, with Binance on top and Hyperliquid and Bybit close, implying where leverage is concentrated.
3. Why It Changes
Which exchange has the most depends on the exact hour and event. Narrow windows can flip leaders, and the largest single liquidation may differ from largest total per venue. Some coverage even highlights short windows where Bybit briefly led totals, underscoring that rankings can vary by slice. For daily context, the broader 24-hour measures above are more representative than one-hour spikes. See the longer-window market update for a clearer picture.
Use 24-hour aggregates for fairness, and treat one-hour spikes as noise unless you are trading intraday volatility.
Conclusion
Across this weeks liquidation waves, Binance consistently led total liquidations, with Bybit and Hyperliquid close behind. Leadership can flip in short windows, but 24-hour snapshots show where leverage concentrates and where cascade risk is most acute.
