The first weekend of April 2025 will go down as one of the toughest for global markets this year. Sparked by newly imposed U.S. tariffs, investor confidence wavered, and the financial dominoes fell fast. The S&P 500 tumbled nearly 5%, while crypto, as usual, reacted with amplified volatility. Bitcoin dropped from close to $90,000 to under $75,000 at its lowest point, shaking up portfolios across the board.
More than 320,000 traders were liquidated, with nearly $1 billion in total losses reported across the major platforms. According to data from Coinglass and Coindesk, Bitcoin long positions alone accounted for over $322 million in liquidations, followed closely by Ethereum and Solana. This was a tough weekend for anyone with skin in the game.
At The One, we’re traders too — and we understand the emotional and financial impact that sudden liquidations can have. That’s why, instead of our regularly scheduled trading challenge, we’ve decided to announce the compensation pool for a community support initiative.
We’re setting aside direct compensation for affected traders — up to $100 each for 10 selected users.
This isn’t about making anyone whole — it’s about showing up when it counts. Because crypto is more than charts and leverage — it’s people, it’s passion, and it’s resilience.
