BTC drops below $60,000, ETH falls below $1,600 – Are crypto whales trying to hold the market?

Author｜Wenser (@wenser2010 )

In the early hours of today, BTC briefly dropped below $60,000 and is now trading around $60,800; ETH briefly fell below $1,600 and is currently around $1,620; SOL briefly dipped below $65 and is now around $67. According to Coinglass data, total liquidations in the past 24 hours reached $971 million, with BTC liquidations amounting to nearly $400 million and ETH liquidations totaling nearly $220 million; long position liquidations accounted for $785 million, while short position liquidations totaled $186 million.

Behind this market downturn, the first in nearly 20 months, lie the “blood-stained chips” from the long positions of 加密 whales—a scene of widespread losses and countless casualties among the bulls.

Hyperliquid’s Largest Bull: Holds 120,000 ETH Long Positions, Floating Loss Exceeds $77 Million

The biggest victim of the market decline is currently the largest trader on the Hyperliquid platform.

On June 23, seven of his addresses opened long positions worth $415 million, which at one point saw a floating loss of up to $91.46 million, approaching $100 million.

Currently, he still holds long positions on 120,000 ETH, with a floating loss exceeding $77 million. Early this morning, he urgently added $8 million in margin to keep the liquidation price below $1,200, which remains relatively healthy; he also still holds over $6 million in USDC on-chain that can be used as margin.

Key addresses are as follows:

• 0xa875890465da20062bcf3b024bf7d54e69c725a8 (Holds 30,000 ETH with 20x leverage long position, floating loss of $18.8 million);

• 0xfd423284f6a9c73a2a3d53cab8921d6533533d97 (Holds 10,000 ETH with 20x leverage long position, floating loss of $6.64 million);

• 0x6c8512516ce5669d35113a11ca8b8de322fd84f6 (Holds 40,000 ETH with 20x leverage long position, floating loss of $25.9 million);

• 0xa5b0edf6b55128e0ddae8e51ac538c3188401d41 (Holds 40,000 ETH with 15x leverage long position, floating loss of $25.93 million).

“Loyal ETH Bull Guard” Machi: Cumulative Losses Exceed $33.75 Million on a Single Address

As one of the most steadfast and frequent traders on the market, Machi (Jeffrey Huang) has demonstrated a well-known persistence in holding long positions on ETH.

On June 23, he was liquidated 7 times on the Hyperliquid platform within 10 hours, yet he chose to continue going long on ETH.

Early this morning, his 25x leverage long position on ETH was liquidated again, incurring losses of over $1.81 million; his cumulative losses on that address have now exceeded $33.75 million. Currently, he has once again opened a 25x leverage long position on ETH, but with a smaller size of only 920 ETH, valued at approximately $1.5 million, with an unrealized profit of around $20,000 and a liquidation price temporarily reported at about $1,591.

“10·11 Insider Whale” Still Active: Floating Loss Exceeds $18.4 Million

As the “10·11 insider whale” who capitalized on the major crash on October 11 last year, Garret Jin remains highly active on the Hyperliquid market. With the recent BTC decline, his 5x leverage long position on BTC has also incurred a floating loss.

Currently, his BTC long position holds 1,270 BTC, with an average entry price of $76,117, a floating loss of approximately $18.4 million, and a liquidation price of $16,964, which remains relatively safe.

High-Win-Rate ETH Specialist Takes a Hit: Actual Loss Nears $2.9 Million

In the volatile 加密currency market, some traders choose to specialize in leveraged long and short positions on ETH. This Hyperliquid whale is one such example. Having traded ETH 15 times since June, he had previously accumulated a profit of $4.29 million.

On June 23, the whale opened an 18x leverage long position on 21,000 ETH at an average price of $1,728.5. After an initial unrealized profit of over $30,000, the position turned to losses as the market declined. On the evening of June 24, his 18x leverage long position briefly showed a floating loss of $1.7 million.

In the early hours of today, as ETH fell below $1,600, he quickly closed his long position at $1,594, ultimately incurring a loss of over $2.85 million.

Subsequently, perhaps in a 定义ant attempt or believing ETH would quickly rebound after breaking $1,600, the address placed 4 separate orders to open long positions on 7,794 ETH. However, all positions were closed within one minute, ending this ETH long trade with a loss of over $40,000.

Ultimately, the address transferred out $350,000 USDC early this morning, exiting with a nominal on-paper profit of $1.038 million.

Hyperliquid Shorting Whale Allegedly Dumps ETH, Recognizing Loss: Actual Loss Exceeds $2.62 Million

A whale on Hyperliquid previously profited $13.68 million by shorting 16 altcoins. Early this morning, amid a market rebound, he transferred 6,855.13 ETH (worth $11.02 million) purchased at an average price of $1,881 to Binance, allegedly for selling. Ultimately, the loss on this position was locked in at approximately $2.625 million. It is evident that contract whales’ disappointment with ETH’s price performance has become quite pronounced.

Whale Opens 20x Leverage Long Positions on BTC and XRP: Floating Loss Exceeds $4 Million

On June 23, a whale opened a 20x leverage long position on 27.9 million XRP (worth $30.9 million). Additionally, he held a 20x leverage long position on 809.9 BTC (worth $50.6 million). At that time, his floating loss exceeded $2.6 million.

As BTC’s price has dropped from $65,000 to current levels, the floating loss on his 20x BTC long position has expanded further to nearly $2.9 million; his 20x XRP long position has also reached a floating loss of approximately $1.2 million due to the price change. The total floating loss now exceeds $4 million.

As of writing, BTC has slightly rebounded above $61,500, ETH has bounced back to around $1,650, and SOL has recovered to near $70.

However, for the whales mentioned above, the strength of this rebound remains minimal, and the distance between floating losses and becoming actual losses fluctuates with price movements.

Author: Golem (@web 3_golem) Last Friday, SpaceX closed its first trading day at $160.95, giving it a market cap of $2.1 trillion. While SpaceX still set a record for the largest IPO in U.S. stock market history, the result fell short of full expectations compared to the market sentiment built up before the listing. Some research institutions, like CFRA, even assigned a “Sell” rating to SPCX, suggesting Musk’s “Mars story” was well-received but not well-bought.
