On-chain whales' unrealized gains of 20 million evaporate, then they add to their positions; short positions expand again to $300 million

2026-01-22 15:14:10

【ChainNews】Interesting on-chain activity has appeared again. A seasoned large trader betting on a decline was liquidated in the early hours today, with unrealized gains instantly evaporating by $20 million. However, this guy didn’t admit defeat; instead, he turned around and added $30 million worth of short positions. Currently, his total short position has accumulated to around $300 million. This move is essentially a bet against the market—liquidation aside, he continues to short. The next market move depends on whether this $300 million short position will face more pressure.

20 million evaporated, and he's still willing to add positions. This guy is really bold, but I just don't know how long these 300 million can hold out.

This guy is really bold. After losing 20 million, he still dares to add to his position. Such a big gamble.

Clearing 20 million and then immediately increasing the position, this guy is really ruthless. I bet he will either become a legend or get liquidated.
