According to @ai_9684xtpa on Twitter, prominent trader James Wynn currently holds a BTC short position of 3523.71 BTC, valued at approximately $370 million, with an entry price of $107,128.4 and a liquidation price of $118,380. As of now, Wynn's position shows a floating profit of $170,000. In addition, another high-profile trader on Hyperliquid, known as 'the Insider,' has a short position of 117.81 BTC (about $12.61 million) at an entry price of $107,823.2. These large-scale short positions highlight significant bearish sentiment among influential traders, a factor that could increase volatility and impact BTC price direction in the near term. Traders should monitor these positions closely as their scale may trigger notable price movements if the market approaches liquidation levels. Source: @ai_9684xtpa on Twitter, May 25, 2025.

According to Ai 姨 (@ai_9684xtpa), two major crypto addresses, 0x5b5...8c060 and 0xB83...D6E36, have opened large short positions on BTC, ETH, and SOL worth a combined $337 million, utilizing 5x and 3x leverage respectively. These positions are backed by substantial collateral and relatively low leverage, characteristics commonly associated with institutional traders. The on-chain data suggests significant institutional bearish sentiment, which could result in increased downward pressure on these key cryptocurrencies. Traders should closely monitor these addresses and overall short interest as institutional moves often precede large price swings. (Source: Ai 姨 @ai_9684xtpa, Twitter, May 18, 2025)

According to @EmberCN, whale address 0x5b5d has aggressively increased short positions against BTC, ETH, and SOL on Hyperliquid since May 9, 2025, deploying $40.5 million USDC as margin with 5x leverage. The total position value has reached $160 million. This significant bearish bet by a major player could intensify downward pressure on the crypto market and increase volatility for these leading assets. Traders should closely monitor this address’s activity for potential price swings and liquidation risks, as large leveraged shorts often precede major market moves.

According to @EmberCN on Twitter, two whale addresses have opened large short positions on BTC, ETH, and SOL since the recent market rally using the Hyperliquid platform. The address 0xB83D transferred $29 million USDC to Hyperliquid since May 9 and opened $72.4 million in shorts with 5x leverage, shorting BTC at $103,538, ETH at $2,385, and SOL at $170.9. As of now, their floating losses have reached $3.44 million, indicating significant bearish bets remain underwater as prices trend higher (Source: @EmberCN Twitter, May 11, 2025). These large-scale leveraged short positions and their current losses may increase volatility and present potential liquidation risks, leading to heightened trading opportunities and price swings in the crypto market.

According to Lookonchain, after a significant increase in Bitcoin price, two wallets—likely controlled by the same whale—opened massive short positions on BTC totaling $127.7 million, using 11x and 40x leverage. The reported liquidation prices are $104,600 and $103,470, with current unrealized losses near $2 million. These aggressive short positions highlight increased bearish sentiment among large holders and have introduced substantial volatility to the crypto derivatives market. Traders should monitor these positions for potential liquidation events, as forced closures could trigger rapid upward price movements and present high-risk, high-reward opportunities for both long and short strategies (Source: Lookonchain via Twitter, hypurrscan.io).
