Recently, there has been some unusual activity. A $240 million combined short position has quietly gone live: $166 million in short positions on BTC $54.85 million in bearish bets on ETH $18.79 million in shorts on SOL This scale is no longer the panic selling of retail investors—this is real money. The whales are using their positions to express their judgment on the market: whether it will go up or down, volatility is inevitable. The problem is, such levels of positions are like a ticking time bomb. Profit-taking by shorts can cause a sell-off, and forced liquidations of longs can trigger a surge. Every move by the opposing side can set off a chain reaction, and we ordinary investors happen to be at the center of the storm. Rather than guessing whether the whales are right or wrong, it’s better to ask yourself one question: when big institutions are engaged in a bloody battle, how should I protect my assets to avoid becoming cannon fodder in their war? Over the years, whenever I encounter such situations, I do the same thing—move part of my funds into places that are completely unrelated to long/short battles. The rules are clear, and the value is stable, like a safe harbor in the asset pool. For example, systems built on protocols like USDD. Its advantages are straightforward: 1. USDD always maintains a 1 USD peg, backed by an on-chain over-collateralization mechanism. No matter how whales open or close positions, they cannot change this price. Liquidations, forced sales, sudden surges or drops—none of these affect this stablecoin. Your USDD truly exists in your own wallet. No exchanges, no intermediaries—withdraw whenever you want, and no one can restrict you. Compared to some centralized stablecoin schemes, this level of sovereignty is on a different scale. When the long/short battles turn the market upside down, at least some assets can stay safely in the secure zone. This is not about abandoning trading, but about leaving yourself an escape route.
