The cryptocurrency market has felt the impact of rising tensions in the Middle East. Market volatility spiked, triggering over $500 million in crypto liquidations.

Altcoin traders, including Ethereum traders, were hit hard, as the market saw significant liquidations on Monday. According to data from crypto data analysis platform Coinglass, ETH long traders saw a substantive $96 million in liquidations on Monday; this marked the highest single-day liquidations in over 57 days.
