Price Collapse

Definition

A price collapse refers to a rapid and substantial decrease in the market value of a digital asset. This event is characterized by a sharp and sudden depreciation in an asset’s price, often driven by significant selling pressure, negative news, or a loss of confidence among market participants. It typically results in considerable financial losses for holders and can trigger cascading liquidations in leveraged positions. Such events can fundamentally alter market sentiment and investor behavior for an extended period.
