Ethereum-based Satoshi Nakamoto Impersonator Suffers 93.16M cDAI Liquidation – The Crypto Basic

An Ethereum address labeled as nakamotosatoshi.eth has suffered a massive cDAI liquidation amid the rally printed in the broader crypto ecosystem.

According to an update from crypto intelligence service provider PeckShield, the total liquidation suffered by nakamotosatoshi.eth came in at 93.16 million cDAI, worth approximately $2.13 million.

This loss was recorded as the price of Ethereum topped the $4,030 mark.

Liquidations like this emerge in the decentralized finance ecosystem when the value of a borrowers collateral in a DeFi agreement falls below a certain threshold. While such losses are irreversible in DeFi, they are also common in centralized crypto markets.

Beyond the Nakamoto address, data from CoinGlass reveals that a total of 109,576 traders have been liquidated over the past 24 hours in the crypto market. The total liquidation across all exchanges is now pegged at $353.86 million.

Traders are always betting for or against the market and while the unpredictable movements typically stir losses as recorded thus far, other factors also hamper investor capital, including untimely sales of assets before maturity.

This latter scenario played out between Maker DAO co-founder Rune Christensen and Tron Founder Justin Sun.

As reported earlier by The Crypto Basic, Justin Sun sold of his Shiba Inu tokens prematurely, compared to Christensen who made a relatively bigger profit, a function of strategic sales when the price of SHIB soared to an intra-day high of $0.00004 on March 6.

Though the number of addresses liquidated in the market is enormous, there are more wallets in profit across the market, including the Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Cardano (ADA) ecosystems.

Per data from the analytics platform, IntoTheBlock (ITB), there are currently 52.27 million BTC addresses or 100% of the ecosystems total profit at the moment as the price is trading at its All-Time High (ATH) price above $72,000. For Ethereum, 94.58% of its addresses amounting to a count of 105.26 million are in profit today.
