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 @OnchainLens, a newly created wallet deposited 5.1M USDC into HyperLiquid and opened a 20x ETH short sized at 10,796 ETH with $50.83M notional, entry price $4,718.1, and liquidation at $5,086.8, source: @OnchainLens; corroborated by HypurrScan address 0x091159A8106b077C13e89bC09701117e8b5F129A. The liquidation level is 7.8 percent above the reported entry price, calculated from the provided figures, source: @OnchainLens. Based on the reported notional and leverage, implied initial margin is approximately $2.54M (notional/20), while the $5.1M deposit suggests roughly a $2.56M margin buffer on the account, calculation based on figures from @OnchainLens. 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. Key trading levels to monitor for this account are the $4,718.1 average entry and the $5,086.8 short liquidation trigger on HyperLiquid, source: @OnchainLens; HypurrScan address 0x091159A8106b077C13e89bC09701117e8b5F129A.

According to @EmberCN, prominent trader @qwatio recently transferred $2.98 million USDC into Hyperliquid to open significant short positions in BTC and ETH.

This aggressive shorting activity could signal increased bearish sentiment and potential volatility in both BTC and ETH markets.
