Tonight, $1800! Ethereum will either crash or die!



The crypto world is now only watching one number: $1800. The 600,000 long ETH positions held by Yilihua have become a guillotine hanging over the entire market.

Everyone is betting on how this blade will fall.

Scenario 1: The Great Liquidation of the Century—Blood in the Streets in 15 Minutes

If ETH drops below $1800, the on-chain liquidation engine will activate instantly.
That’s not just selling tokens; it’s an atomic-level on-chain dump.

Imagine: hundreds of thousands of ETH sell orders, ruthlessly thrown into the market by algorithms within seconds. The liquidity in crypto right now is as thin as paper. Such a level of selling pressure isn’t just a “few points down”—it’s free fall.

History has played out this scene before:

· 2022 Luna collapse, algorithmic liquidations triggered a death spiral, wiping out trillions in market cap in days.
· Summer 2023, a major whale was liquidated near $2500, causing ETH to plummet 18% in a single day.

This time, the scale is bigger, and liquidity is worse.
Conservatively estimated, a 20% “hell needle” will directly pierce through the candlestick chart. All the long positions around $1800 will be wiped out with one click, leaving nothing but bones.

Scenario 2: Self-Amputation—Panic Nuclear Bomb Detonation Ahead of Time

Will Yilihua sit and wait for death? Impossible.
He’s definitely frantically searching for a way out—and the only viable option is to dump spot holdings early.

This is more terrifying than a liquidation.
A liquidation is a quick “beheading,” but active selling is a prolonged “torture.” He will sell ETH spot aggressively to cover margin, regardless of the cost. In today’s sluggish trading volume market, this kind of selling is like opening a tsunami generator in a swimming pool.

The chain reaction triggered will be:

1. First wave: His massive sell orders break through all buy support levels.
2. Second wave: Other big players see this, panic, and start selling too—“He can’t hold anymore, run!”
3. Third wave: Retail investors collapse en masse, fleeing in stampede.
4. Result: Market confidence collapses completely. ETH could drop more than 10%, shaking the entire valuation system.

The ultimate test in crypto: can you escape?

This isn’t just normal volatility. It’s a stress test on the entire DeFi leverage empire, and the likely result is: failure.

The impact far exceeds price:

1. Faith Collapse: If even this level of whale gets ruthlessly squeezed out by the system, who will still believe “decentralized finance is the future”? It proves that under extreme pressure, the current system will turn against its strongest participants.
2. Liquidity Black Hole: One liquidation can drain liquidity from multiple major DEXs. Lending protocols could face huge bad debts, potentially triggering chain reactions like the “Three Arrows Capital” storm.
3. Regulatory Sword: Such a brutal market crash will give global regulators the sharpest “I told you so” handle. Stricter, more lethal regulations will fall like an iron curtain.

So don’t naïvely ask “Will it fall?”
The real question is: when that needle goes down, will your position still see the sunrise tomorrow?

Everyone still in the game, your bet isn’t just on Ethereum’s price.
You’re betting on whether this fragile financial experiment can withstand an internal explosion of magnitude.
The eye of the storm has formed, and the shockwave is approaching.

Buckle up. Or, get out quickly.
