Why Crypto Market Is Crashing Today [Live] Updates On November 3

The Ethereum ($ETH) liquidation map is flashing signals of a potential short squeeze. Most liquidity is currently stacked on the sell side, suggesting that once price pushes higher, it could trigger a cascade of liquidations — fueling a strong upward move.There’s notable liquidity buildup around $3,875, hinting at a possible fake-out or brief spike before the real breakout. If ETH clears that zone, it could open the path for a major rally — possibly leading the next leg of the bull run.

The crypto market is back in the red as Bitcoin ($BTC) tumbles to $108,000, while Ethereum ($ETH) slides over 3%.

Meanwhile, Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $388 million in net outflows, the largest since August, signaling profit-taking by institutions.
