According to Coinglass data monitoring, the whale holdings on the Hyperliquid platform are worth paying attention to. Currently, the total whale holdings amount to $6.899 billion, with long positions at $3.346 billion (48.5%) and short positions at $3.553 billion (51.5%).

Interestingly, shorts are actually in the lead — short holders are currently profitable by $183 million, while long positions are floating at a loss of $110 million. This indicates that in the current leveraged market, market sentiment is clearly divided, with the bulls under pressure.

It is worth noting the aggressive operation of a certain whale address 0xb317..ae. This player opened a 5x full-position long when ETH price was $3,147.39, betting quite heavily. However, based on the current unrealized profit and loss, this trade is floating at a loss of $5.6515 million, demonstrating the double-edged sword effect of leverage in this transaction.

In a high-leverage environment, every move by whales can influence the market rhythm. This round of data reflects significant bullish pressure, with bears temporarily holding the advantage. The subsequent trend still requires close observation.

Whale is back to causing trouble. Going all-in with 5x leverage long position resulted in a loss of 5.65 million. This round is quite brutal. --- Shorts are now extremely popular. Long traders are feeling a bit uncomfortable. --- Wait, with a position size of 6.899 billion, this is a really big move. --- Leverage is just a gambling machine; the more aggressive the players, the faster they lose. --- That whale is really ruthless, buying the bottom at $3,147? Then immediately getting slapped, haha. --- The longs got crushed, the shorts are having a blast. Clearly, this round belongs to the bears. --- Another story of a full-position dream shattered. Leverage, you are truly incredible. --- The 51.5% short position ratio isn't very high; there might still be a reversal later. --- How big of a ball does that whale need to go all-in with 5x leverage to dare to play like this?

Oops, this whale is playing with fire again. 5x full position and a loss of 5.65 million. Leverage is really a trap. The bears are now having a great time, while the bulls are being pressed to the ground and rubbed. This rhythm doesn't feel right. With a position of 6.8 billion, how can the short positions still win? Need to carefully watch how it develops later. That guy with the address 0xb317 is a bit reckless this time. Bought ETH with a full position at 3147, probably can't sleep well now. Can the bulls turn around? It feels like the bears' momentum is too strong. The whales are playing, and we're just watching the show—typical high-leverage game. 51.5% short vs. 48.5% long—can a mere 1.5 percentage point difference make so much money? This round, the bulls are indeed a bit unfortunate, with an unrealized loss of 110 million. The bears made 183 million. Is the gap really that big? Wait, is that giant whale really fierce or just foolish? Going all-in with 5x leverage—how confident must they be about the market? With high leverage, a whale's every move can create waves. That's why I never go all-in.

Five times full margin long position, floating loss of 5.65 million... This is the power of leverage, brother. --- The short position made money again, while the longs are taking the hit. --- That whale is really ruthless, going all in with 5x leverage. How uncomfortable must that be now? --- 51.5% of the open short positions, clearly looking down on the longs. --- Another leverage bankruptcy story, but this time it's in the tens of millions. --- Being able to survive with a floating loss of 5.65 million shows such strong mental resilience. --- Shorts made over 183 million, longs lost 110 million. The gap is widening. --- On the Hyperliquid platform, even whales are harvesting each other.

5x full position long losing 5.65 million, is this the joy of leverage? --- Shorts make money while longs lose, whales are killing each other... --- Another all-in trader gets harvested, which is why I only dare to use 2x leverage --- 51% short, 51% long? The market is really divided --- Why hasn't that whale been liquidated yet? Their luck is really top-notch --- Leverage market, to put it simply, is about playing probabilities, the odds are right there --- Shorts are feeling good now, just don't get hit by a retest --- I laughed when I saw the whale floating with a loss of 11 million, this deal is a big loss --- Longs are really getting beaten, shorts are winning for now but how long can they keep winning? --- Looking at these data, longs should be buying the dip, or should we wait a bit longer?

Another aggressive trader with 5x full leverage, learned the lesson with $5.65 million. Shorts are really strong this time, long traders are feeling a bit uncomfortable. Playing with 5x leverage so aggressively, do whales also have to take a gamble? Truly bold. Why are longs so miserable in this data... In the short term, it's still a bear market. Are whale addresses this aggressive? Going all-in with 5x direct ape in, I just can't understand. 51.5% short positions versus 48.5% long positions, this bullish side is having a tough time. Let's see when these whales go broke, that will be the real excitement. Another story of 5x full leverage, playing like this will eventually lead to trouble.

This whale is really ruthless, losing $5.65 million USD with a 5x full position. The bears are now having a great time, the bulls are really struggling in this wave. This guy is betting pretty aggressively, but just chose the wrong direction. Leverage is like that. Looking at these data, the bulls are really in a precarious position, gotta be careful. 5x full position? Bro, you're gambling with your life. The bears are the real winners, feeling comfortable this round. This whale's move is a bit impressive, just the wrong direction, gg. Long positions are floating at a loss of 110 million, bears are happily earning 183 million, the gap is quite big. Leverage markets are like this, one decision can mean heaven or hell. Judging by this momentum, the bears are short-term safe.
