3 Altcoins Facing Major Liquidation Risks in Early March

Escalating geopolitical tensions over the weekend did not trigger severe capital outflows from altcoins, suggesting prices are near equilibrium and poised for a significant move. That setup raises the risk of large-scale liquidations as volatility returns. Solana (SOL) has traded sideways around $84 since early February, a volatility compression that often precedes a breakout.

The Solana Buy/Sell Pressure Delta has turned red and declined sharply, a signal that historically marks either a local bottom before a strong upside move or the start of a major bear market. If SOL falls to $74 this week, the 7-day liquidation map shows potential Long liquidations could reach $376 million; a rebound to $95 could expose Shorts to about $450 million.

XRP held near $1.35 despite rising geopolitical tensions, while the Net Unrealized Profit and Loss (NUPL) indicator points to the final phase of a downtrend. March has averaged an 18% return for XRP over the past 12 years.
