Arthur Hayes: The automatic liquidation of cross-margin collateral positions by major CEXs is the reason behind the recent altcoin crash.
ChainCatcher reported that Arthur Hayes, co-founder of a certain exchange, stated that the automatic liquidation of cross-margin positions collateralized by related assets on large centralized exchanges (CEX) is the reason why many altcoins suffered heavy losses during this round of price declines.
