Recently, several major traders have been adjusting their positions in the market. The bulls are facing difficulties, with one whale suffering heavy losses due to a capital preservation closeout, and another bullish trader incurring a loss of $1.31 million. The bears are performing strongly, with a trader increasing their DASH short position, and another investor profiting $216,800 by closing ETH long positions. Market competition is fierce.

【Block Rhythm】On-chain monitoring data shows that between 10:00 and 20:00 today, several heavyweight traders’ position adjustments have attracted much attention.

The bulls are a bit embarrassed. A leading whale’s Bitcoin and Ethereum long positions, opened this morning, both triggered stop-loss orders, with a total position size of approximately $58.9 million. Just as they were about to turn the tide, it all fell apart. Even more heartbreaking is the persistent trader who has failed 30 times but keeps trying—this week, they suffered losses on Bitcoin longs again, closing all positions to cut losses, with a weekly loss of $1.31 million—this persistence is a bit costly.

The bears, on the other hand, are gaining momentum. A trader nicknamed “Strategy Opponent” has started increasing DASH short positions, using 5x leverage to short 107,986 DASH. They are now the largest DASH short position on the Hyperliquid platform. Meanwhile, veteran trader “Lightning Reversal” executed a clean close of ETH longs, directly earning $216,800 in profit.

In this market rally, both longs and shorts are competing fiercely.

Ha, it's another day of longs getting crushed. That whale's 58.9 million just went down the drain. Is this still called capital preservation liquidation? 1.31 million in a week? Brother, your persistence isn't cheap. You really should consider a different approach. The shorts are laughing to death. DASH turned around directly this time. Wow, with five times leverage maxed out. This market is really like that—longs struggling, shorts gloating. No one can live a stable life.

Haha, this brother really has perseverance. He’s willing to hold a long position for 1.31 million, I have to respect you as a real man.

Haha, the bulls had a really tough week. Losing $1.31 million and still wanting to go long, are you out of your mind?

Ha, yet another day of bullish bloodshed. This guy lost $1.31 million just like that. I have to say, sticking to the wrong direction really is burning money.
