honestly the profit-taking mechanics here are mid. 6.4k gains on 3.1M notional? that's like 206 bps of slippage they're eating. if they'd just written better order routing logic instead of market dumping, could've squeezed another 1-2k easy.

Selling SOL to buy the dip in BTC and HYPE, this whale really knows how to play. With such unrealized gains, they're still adding more... I really wish I were that rich too.

The risk of liquidation... Investing 64,000 profit into futures, I can't quite handle this move. What if the threshold is triggered? No mention of the leverage ratio for BTC positions.

Selling off SOL is just to go all in on BTC and HYPE. This whale is serious, so let's just follow suit and copy the homework.

Take profit and run, this tactic is really excellent. But still daring to get on board at this HYPE level, your courage is truly remarkable.
