**Feb 4 Update: Bitcoin Liquidation Intensity (Coinglass Data)** Per Coinglass data, if Bitcoin dips below $75k, cumulative long liquidation intensity across major centralized exchanges (CEXs) will reach $498 million. Conversely, a breakout above $79k would trigger $637 million in cumulative short liquidation intensity for the same CEXs. **BlockBeats Note**: Liquidation charts do not show exact contract counts or values. Bars instead reflect how important each liquidation cluster is relative to adjacent ones (i.e., "intensity"). This means the chart signals the impact of hitting a price level: higher bars mean a more intense price reaction due to a liquidity cascade.
