According to @OnchainLens, a whale first deposited $4M USDC into HyperLiquid to avoid liquidation on a 20x BTC short and, over 15 days, increased total deposits to $15M to maintain margin, source: @OnchainLens and Hypurrscan address 0x5D2F4460Ac3514AdA79f5D9838916E508Ab39Bb7. According to @OnchainLens, the position currently shows a $12.45M floating loss while earning $6.247M via the funding rate, source: @OnchainLens and Hypurrscan. According to @OnchainLens, based on these reported figures, the net PnL impact is approximately -$6.20M, indicating funding income partially offsets adverse price moves, source: @OnchainLens.

According to @OnchainLens, wallet 0x8c5 deposited $4 million in USDC into HyperLiquid to raise the liquidation price on its ETH short position using 20x leverage, with the position showing a $14 million unrealized loss and $26 million total drawdown. Onchain Lens and the HyperDash trader page for address 0x8c5865689EABe45645fa034e53d0c9995DCcb9c9 corroborate the tracked account and open short exposure. Based on the 20x leverage reported by @OnchainLens, added margin reduces immediate liquidation risk but keeps a large high-leverage ETH short active, so monitoring this address and HyperLiquid liquidation levels remains relevant for near-term ETH perps flows, per @OnchainLens and HyperDash.

According to @lookonchain, ETH broke above $4,700 as address 0x0911 deposited $5.1M USDC into Hyperliquid to open a 20x leveraged short on ETH (source: @lookonchain).

PnL sensitivity for this position is about $107,960 per $10 move in ETH and around $0.51M per 1 percent move, calculation based on figures from @OnchainLens.
