If the price of Ether (ETH) falls by a further 20%, the price decline could trigger a cascade of up to $336 million in decentralized finance (DeFi) liquidations, according to Kevin Rusher, founder of the real-world asset (RWA) lending platform RAAC.The executive warned that a decline to $1,857 would trigger $136 million in liquidations, and a price drop to $1,780 could potentially trigger an additional $117 million in loan liquidations — making these the next price levels to watch.Rusher added that the worst-case scenario would be a 20% drop in ETH’s price to around the $1,500 price level, which could liquidate $336 million in DeFi loans, sending the markets tumbling. In a written statement shared with Cointelegraph, Rusher said:“The main catalyst of this crisis is a single $130m ETH-backed loan in Sky, formerly Maker, which is on the verge of collapse despite the borrower scrambling to add more collateral. Every cycle, crypto-backed loans suffer from extreme volatility, leading to cascading liquidations that crash the price of assets.”The executive called for integrating RWAs, such as real estate and gold, which feature much stabler values, into the DeFi ecosystem to offset volatility and prevent cascading liquidations due to overleveraging.Total ETH liquidations.
