Whale\’s $121M Bet: Seriously?

by

\n

Okay, so there\’s this whale, right? On Hyperliquid. A big spender. Apparently, they\’ve decided Bitcoin is going DOWN. Again. 🙄

\n\n

This Bitcoin Thing… Still?

\n\n

Look, according to these… people… who track this stuff onchain data… this “Hyperunit whale,” address 0xb317D – very mysterious, very important apparently – is $121.72 million short Bitcoin. Ten times leverage! Ten! It’s like betting your rent… but with someone else’s money. Or THEIR rent. It\’s complicated.

\n\n

They\’re holding 1,100 BTC-USD contracts, entered around $109,762. And are currently… losing. Down almost a million dollars. A million! But they\’re getting a little cushion from “funding gains” – which sounds like something I get from coupons at the grocery store. Honestly, the whole thing is a mess.

\n

\n\n

Their “liquidation price” – the point where all their money vanishes – is $135,320. So, they really think Bitcoin is going down. They got like 29 million bucks total, mostly in these contracts. It’s all very stressful just thinking about it. And they own like, 141 dollars worth of actual Bitcoin. Pathetic

\n\n

And this isn’t the first time this has happened! Apparently, back in October, they did this whole thing with Bitcoin and Ethereum right before… stuff happened? And made, like, 190 million! 🤨 It\’s a pattern. A very annoying pattern. People are watching them like hawks. Like what are they even expecting to happen? Insiders they say! I bet it’s just luck.

\n\n

There’s a whole team of people, apparently, with names like Arkham and Hypurrscan, tracking this one wallet. It gets nine-figure deposits and then immediately makes these enormous bets. It’s… a lot. It’s just too much. Why so much money!? It’s obscene.

\n\n

So, the whale owns like, $4.81 billion worth of stuff, 93% of it is Bitcoin. 40,720 Bitcoin to be exact. And a tiny amount of other stuff. Like, tokens I’ve never even heard of. It’s typical. Wealth inequality, you know? It\’s just… ugh.

\n\n

Despite losing money, they\’re still up overall. Because Bitcoin did a little bounce. A little! It\’s insulting. They’ve got tons of USDC – that\’s like digital dollars, right? – so they can just keep making these bets. It’s infuriating.

\n\n

And now, Bitcoin is around $110,800 and they\’re back in short. Again! I mean, really? Are they just trying to give me gray hairs? Oh, and people are watching, naturally. Always watching. Waiting for them to be wrong. After all, maybe it\’s just a mistake this time.
