Crypto Kingpin AguilaTrades Wiped Out: $40M Liquidation Rocks Markets in Flash Crash
Another 'unstoppable' trader meets the margin call reaper.
When volatility strikes, even the sharpest claws get clipped—AguilaTrades just learned that lesson the hard way as a brutal cascade of liquidations vaporized $40 million in positions. The crypto elite isn't immune to gravity.
Blood in the water
Markets turned predatory without warning, triggering stop-losses across leveraged positions. The so-called 'eagle' got grounded mid-flight—proof that overconfidence remains the most expensive fee in trading.
Post-mortem irony? The liquidation event itself became the most predictable outcome in decentralized finance. Maybe next time someone will actually hedge.
