According to Crypto Rover, a trader lost $4.77 million in less than 8 hours by shorting Ethereum, dropping their account from $5 million to just $300,000 as a result of a strong short squeeze. This highlights elevated volatility and the risk of shorting ETH during bullish momentum, with current market sentiment favoring long positions and liquidating bearish traders (Source: Crypto Rover on Twitter, May 9, 2025). Traders should exercise caution and monitor real-time liquidation data before entering leveraged shorts, as Ethereum price action continues to squeeze bearish positions.
