Binance Issues Statement on October 10 Market Crash
- Crash Causes: Binance stated that the sharp decline in the cryptocurrency market on October 10 was primarily due to macroeconomic factors, market makers' risk protocols, and congestion on the Ethereum network, rather than internal technical issues, highlighting the market's vulnerability to external shocks.
- Leverage Position Risks: Prior to the crash, open positions in derivative markets approached record levels, particularly with Bitcoin futures and options exceeding $100 billion, making the market more susceptible to forced liquidations in a high-leverage environment.
- Liquidity Crisis: Binance reported that Bitcoin liquidity on certain exchanges dropped to near zero at specific price levels, with buy orders virtually disappearing, exacerbating price volatility and revealing the fragility of liquidity management during extreme market fluctuations.
- Technical Issues Clarified: Although Binance's fund transfer subsystem experienced a delay of approximately 33 minutes during peak trading hours, its matching engine and risk controls remained unaffected, indicating that technical issues did not cause the market crash.
