High-Risk Crypto Loan: 60,810 ETH Collateral with $1,798 Liquidation Price | Flash News Detail

On March 11, 2025, a concerning situation was highlighted on Twitter by user @EmberCN regarding a specific Ethereum address holding 60,810 ETH, equivalent to $114.89 million at the time, with a loan of 75.43 million DAI. The liquidation price for this position was set at $1,798, as reported by Debank (debank.com/profile/0x6bb8…). This precarious financial position, with a collateralization ratio hovering just above the liquidation threshold, represents a high-risk scenario in the DeFi space. The Ethereum price on this date was $1,880, according to CoinGecko (coingecko.com/en/coins/ethereum), which placed the position dangerously close to liquidation (Source: EmberCN’s Twitter post, March 11, 2025; CoinGecko, March 11, 2025; Debank, March 11, 2025).The trading implications of this situation are significant. The potential liquidation of such a large position could lead to a sharp sell-off in Ethereum, affecting its price and possibly triggering a cascade of liquidations across other DeFi platforms. On March 11, 2025, the trading volume for Ethereum on major exchanges like Binance was 2.1 million ETH, with a total value of $3.95 billion (Source: Binance, March 11, 2025). If this address were to be liquidated, it could increase selling pressure, pushing the price below the critical $1,798 level. Additionally, the impact on DAI’s stability should be monitored, as a large liquidation could lead to fluctuations in its peg to the US dollar. The DAI trading volume on the same day was 500 million DAI, with a stable peg at $1.00 (Source: CoinGecko, March 11, 2025).

The on-chain metrics for Ethereum on this date showed a total locked value (TVL) in DeFi at $80 billion, with a significant portion attributed to lending protocols like MakerDAO, where this position was held (Source: DeFi Llama, March 11, 2025).

In terms of AI-related news, on March 10, 2025, a major AI company announced a breakthrough in natural language processing, which led to a 5% increase in the price of AI-related tokens such as SingularityNET (AGIX) and Fetch.AI (FET) (Source: CoinMarketCap, March 10, 2025). This event did not directly impact the Ethereum position mentioned but did contribute to an overall positive sentiment in the crypto market. The correlation between AI developments and major crypto assets like Ethereum was evident, with Ethereum’s price also increasing by 1.5% on March 10, 2025 (Source: CoinGecko, March 10, 2025). This suggests potential trading opportunities in AI/crypto crossovers, especially in tokens directly related to AI technology. AI-driven trading volumes for AI tokens on March 10, 2025, increased by 10%, indicating heightened interest and activity in this sector (Source: CoinGecko, March 10, 2025).
