Dogecoin Leads Losses Among Majors as Profit-Taking Grips Crypto Market
A wave of profit-taking and risk-off trading ripped through crypto markets late Monday, with long traders being liquidated for over $406 million in 24 hours. Another $269 million came from short-side losses, taking the total liquidation figure to $675.8 million, marking one of the heaviest wipeouts since April. The heaviest blow landed on bitcoin (BTC) longs, which saw over $333 million in forced closures, followed by ether (ETH) at $113 million and XRP at $36 million. Solana's SOL and dogecoin (DOGE) were also hit, shedding around $14 million each. Dogecoin was the worst-performing major, dropping over 7.6% on the day as speculative froth evaporated. BTC and ETH also fell 3.1% and 2.6%, cooling off after a nearly week-long rally. The largest single liquidation came from a $98.1 million BTC/USDT long on Binance, per liquidation tracker Coinglass. Even as bitcoin trades near record highs, some desks are stepping back from the euphoria. Derivative flows suggest that traders aren't rushing to chase the upside, and elevated funding rates are making leveraged bets increasingly expensive. The sense is that markets may be due for a breather after an overheated run. "With BTC in uncharted territory, short-term ceilings remain unclear," wrote QCP Capital in a note to clients. "Funding rates are elevated, and the memory of February's $2 billion liquidation event still lingers." Options data paints a picture of cautious optimism, QCP wrote. While short-dated implied volatility ticked higher, it remains well below 2023 averages. September and December risk reversals still favor call options, hinting at longer-term bullishness, though traders appear reluctant to chase upside in the near term. Meanwhile, some analysts are urging traders not to mistake momentum for inevitability. Mounting institutional demand and macro shifts are undeniably fueling the rally, but they're also raising the stakes. 'The road to $150,000 by Q3 looks increasingly plausible, powered by ETF inflows, supply constraints, and macro tailwinds like a weakening dollar and potential Fed cuts,' Bitget's Ryan Lee said in a note to CoinDesk. 'The road to $150,000 by Q3 looks increasingly plausible, powered by supply scarcity and mounting institutional demand. Still, this isn't a one-way street. Profit-taking, rate speculation, and geopolitical risks could spark a short-term pullback, potentially dragging BTC into a $105,000–$115,000 consolidation zone,' Lee in to access your portfolio

QCP Players Program celebrating debut performance A red dress and a sparkly headband are all it takes to transform Queens native Tyaisha Blake-Lochard into the Roald Dahl character Veruca Salt. She's keeping her composure before the big performance of "Willy Wonka" at Queens Centers for Progress (QCP), an organization that provides resources and support for individuals with developmental disabilities. "I'm just a little nervous, but I'm hanging in there," she said. "We know that they feel like an actor in a Broadway show feels on their opening day," QCP executive director Terri Ross said. The show marks a debut for the QCP Players Program, a partnership with inclusive performing arts nonprofit AhHa!Broadway. Participants are not only performers but also set painters, stage crew and ushers. Maurice Agard, who plays the title role, looks forward to seeing his parents in the audience. "They're going to love it," he said. "They have blossomed" Over 12 weeks of rehearsals, organizers have witnessed improvements in focus, energy, creativity and collaboration. "They have blossomed. They have become more animated, and also have become more closer with working together with other people because they realize it's part of a team," adult day services director Josie Davide said. "Literally, like, between goosebumps and tears sitting here watching them. It's just heartwarming," QCP director of development Wendy Gennaro said. Davide is eager to share the group's talent and joy with audiences. "I want them to see that people with disabilities can do whatever they put their mind to," she said.
