Bitcoin Falls Below $69,000 as Crypto Liquidations Reach $1.47 Billion

Bitcoin fell 7% over the past 24 hours to $68,408 at November 13, 2026, 12:10 a.m. ET, while total crypto liquidations reached $1.47 billion over the same period. The reading was notable because $1.31 billion of the liquidations came from long positions, indicating that traders positioned for higher prices bore most of the forced closures during the sell-off.

The price was Bitcoin’s lowest level since August 20, according to The Block. U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs also recorded net outflows for a seventh consecutive trading day through November 13, adding a separate signal of withdrawals from the fund market.

Long liquidations dominated the 24-hour sell-off

CoinGlass data cited by The Block put total crypto liquidations at $1.47 billion over the past 24 hours on November 13. Long-position liquidations accounted for $1.31 billion of that total, and 175,299 traders were liquidated.

Liquidation figures measure leveraged derivatives positions that exchanges closed, not Bitcoin’s market value directly. The $68,408 reading tracks Bitcoin’s price, while the liquidation data show the scale and direction of forced position closures as markets moved lower.

The activity accelerated in a shorter window. Crypto positions worth $798 million were liquidated over the past four hours, with long positions accounting for $718.5 million, according to the CoinGlass figures cited by The Block.

Bitcoin reached its lowest level since August 20

Bitcoin fell 7% to $68,408 on November 13, its lowest level since August 20.

The decline put the cryptocurrency below $69,000.

The Block reported that the move followed market concern over Nvidia’s leadership shake-up and expectations of another Federal Reserve interest-rate hike, while presenting those factors as market context rather than quantified individual effects on Bitcoin’s price.

Spot bitcoin ETFs extended their outflow streak

U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows on seven consecutive trading days through November 13, according to The Block. Farside Investors reported a total U.S. spot bitcoin ETF net outflow of $185.4 million on November 13.

ETF net flows and derivatives liquidations are distinct measures. The former records net money moving into or out of U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs, while the latter records closed leveraged crypto positions. Taken together, the seven-day ETF outflow streak and the long-heavy liquidation figures show that the November 13 decline occurred alongside pressure in both markets.
