LIGHT price fluctuated dramatically: 8.84 million tokens deposited into CEX after a flash crash, with $16.17 million Get Liquidated in 24 hours, approaching Bitcoin and Ether.

LIGHT0,72%
BTC-0,13%
ETH0,42%

According to monitoring by the blockchain data platform Lookonchain, within the past 7 hours, a total of 5 wallets have deposited approximately 8.84 million LIGHT tokens into a certain centralized exchange (CEX), which is valued at about 8.2 million USD based on the price at that time. This action occurred during a period of significant fluctuation in the price of LIGHT, raising high concerns in the market regarding capital outflow and selling pressure at high levels.

Market data shows that the LIGHT Token has rapidly surged from about $1.35 to $4.75 in the past 3 days, with an astonishing short-term increase. However, after reaching the peak stage, the price quickly fell back in less than 2 hours, once dropping below the $1 mark, displaying a typical “boom and bust” trend. This extreme market condition led to a rapid liquidation of many high-leverage positions.

According to statistics, in the past 24 hours, the liquidation amount of the LIGHT Token has reached approximately 16.17 million USD, ranking only behind Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) in the entire market, with the liquidation intensity far exceeding that of most small and medium market cap crypto assets. Relevant data indicates that the proportion of speculative funds participating in LIGHT trading is relatively high in the short term, with risks being concentrated and released.

Market analysis suggests that large wallets transferring tokens to CEX at high levels are often seen as potential sell signals. In cases of limited liquidity, concentrated selling pressure can easily trigger a price crash, amplifying the fluctuation. For investors who follow the price trends of LIGHT tokens, cryptocurrency clearing data, and altcoin risk management, this event once again reminds us that highly volatile tokens often accompany sharp corrections after rapid increases, necessitating cautious control of positions and leverage risk.

Google’s Quantum AI team published research on March 30, 2026 indicating that breaking Bitcoin and Ethereum’s elliptic curve cryptography may require fewer than 500,000 physical qubits and approximately 1,200 to 1,450 high-quality logical qubits, significantly lower than previous estimates in the millions.

Sell-off warning lights up red! 47% of circulating Bitcoin is “trapped,” and long-term holders are also cutting losses and exiting

The cryptocurrency market is facing a cold wind, with nearly half of Bitcoin already falling below cost, and long-term investors have also begun selling at a loss. The Bitcoin Impact Index has risen to 57.4, indicating that market pressure is intensifying; in similar historical cases, it has often preceded a large-scale sell-off that is about to come. Short-term holders are down 47%, liquidity momentum is weakening, and stablecoin outflows have turned into net inflows, reversing course.

Google quantum computer reportedly breaks Bitcoin in 9 minutes—how are those numbers calculated, and where is the real threat?

Recently, rumors circulating online claim that “Google research shows quantum computers can crack Bitcoin private keys within 9 minutes,” but this is actually misinformation; there is no source for the data. In fact, cracking Bitcoin’s ECDSA requires 1.9 billion qubits, far more than Google Willow’s 105. The real threat is that an attacker can first collect data and then use a quantum computer to decrypt it; experts’ predictions for when quantum computers can crack encryption are in the 2035–2040 timeframe. The cryptography industry has already begun preparing defensive measures.
