Cascade autopsy: ETH, 2026-08-30 - $60.6M liquidated (n=5,331 tape events)

On 2026-08-30, our multi-venue tape recorded a ETH cascade: $60.6M in forced closes over 9 minutes (n=5,331 raw tape events in our own capture, not the whole market).

The liquidation map snapshot published 4 minutes before the start showed 23 levels; 10 were reached inside the cascade's traded range (n=23 levels, Wilson 95% lower bound 26%). Misses are shown at equal weight in the full autopsy.

The measured record at the time sat below its own validation gate - status only, per our honesty rules (the figure is not republished here).
