According to @ai_9684xtpa, the whale dubbed the 1011 flash crash short insider cut 12,587.99 ETH from Hyperliquid long address 0xb31…283ae in the past hour with a realized loss of about 3.424 million, based on Hyperliquid trader data via hyperbot.network. According to @ai_9684xtpa, a new address 0xcA0…b2998 withdrew 118,000 ETH from Binance over roughly 22 hours at an average withdrawal price near 2871.4, per Arkham Intel. According to @ai_9684xtpa, the trader still holds long exposure of 210,752.65 ETH, 1,000 BTC and 511,000 SOL on Hyperliquid with position value around 767 million and an unrealized loss near 57.13 million, per hyperbot.network. According to @ai_9684xtpa, the account’s cumulative profit has retraced to the lowest since 2025.10 and earlier intraday unrealized loss neared 90 million as BTC and ETH printed local lows, based on hyperbot.network and the cited price prints. According to @ai_9684xtpa, liquidation risk is not immediate because leverage appears low and margin sufficient on Hyperliquid, per the platform metrics.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, Hyperliquid’s top BTC short address added 14.5 BTC to its short roughly minutes prior, lifting total exposure to 246 million USD with 5.12 million USD unrealized profit; BTC and ETH shorts accounted for 47.8% and 42% with entry prices at 90,671 USD and 3,026.83 USD, per hyperbot.network trader data. According to @ai_9684xtpa, a subsequent update shows the address rolling positions with 106.5% margin utilization after adding 11.87 million USD to BTC and ETH shorts, bringing total short exposure to 276 million USD across BTC, ETH, HYPE, PEPE, and XMR; BTC and ETH now comprise 54% and 36% of exposure with liquidation levels at 92,315.4 USD and 3,107.88 USD and 5.62 million USD unrealized profit, per hyperbot.network.

According to @lookonchain, after ETH fell below 2,900, trader Machi (@machibigbrother) trimmed part of his ETH long to avoid liquidation. According to @lookonchain, he then deposited 250,000 USDC to Hyperliquid to continue adding to the ETH long. According to @lookonchain, the cited address shows a 4,450 ETH long worth about 12.94 million USD with a liquidation price of 2,841.97 on Hyperliquid, based on Hypurrscan data referenced by @lookonchain.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, the top BTC short address on Hyperliquid added $11.87M to BTC and ETH short positions, is rolling positions, and shows margin utilization of 106.5% (source: @ai_9684xtpa; data: hyperbot.network/trader/0xd83516572789f1c782c8298efce58a5600318fd7). Total short exposure stands at $276M across BTC, ETH, HYPE, PEPE, and XMR, with BTC 54% at a liquidation price of $92,315.4 and ETH 36% at a liquidation price of $3,107.88, and unrealized profit of $5.62M (source: @ai_9684xtpa; data: hyperbot.network/trader/0xd83516572789f1c782c8298efce58a5600318fd7).

According to @EmberCN, a roughly 4 percent rebound around 3 a.m. liquidated about one third of on chain trader 0xD83...Fd7's USD 332 million short position, source: @EmberCN on X. The rebound also reduced his unrealized profit by about USD 20 million, from USD 24 million to USD 4 million, source: @EmberCN on X.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, Hyperliquid address 0x94d...33814 closed BTC, ETH, and SOL shorts for about $3.12M realized profit and then flipped to roughly $294M in longs across the three tokens, now showing around $1.06M unrealized loss with ETH down while the SOL long and a DASH short remain profitable (source: @ai_9684xtpa; hyperbot.network). Whale positioning is split on Hyperliquid: address 0x94d...33814 is the top BTC short with about 1,545 BTC, 70,015 ETH and 490,662 SOL shorts and roughly $4.32M floating profit, while address 0xd83...18fd7 holds about 1,640 BTC and 31,093 ETH shorts with roughly $3.92M floating profit (source: @ai_9684xtpa; hyperbot.network). On the long side, a trader labeled as the post-10/11 flash-crash insider is BTC long top 3 and ETH long top 1 with about 1,000 BTC and 223,340 ETH longs and an unrealized loss near $9.2M, and pension-usdt.eth holds a 1,000 BTC long with a multi-million unrealized loss, while another whale carries 11,000 ETH longs with a seven-figure drawdown (source: @ai_9684xtpa; hyperbot.network). The two-sided leverage concentration in BTC, ETH, and SOL per Hyperliquid leaderboards shows how quickly PnL flips intraday, as illustrated by the same address profiting on shorts and then drawing down on fresh longs (source: @ai_9684xtpa; hyperbot.network).

According to @phantom, six new perpetual futures markets—Monero (XMR), Copper (COPPER), Axie Infinity (AXS), Dash (DASH), Alibaba (BABA), and Rivian (RIVN)—are live for trading with up to 20x leverage.

According to @lookonchain, on-chain data shown on Hypurrscan indicates address 0x4607 deposited 3M USDC to open a 4x short on 3,840 ETH valued at about $11.86M, while address 0xfB66 deposited 7.38M USDC to open a 12x long on 10,000 ETH valued at about $30.92M (source: @lookonchain, Hypurrscan). According to @lookonchain, this represents a long–short battle on ETH perpetuals, highlighting concentrated opposing leverage (source: @lookonchain). Based on @lookonchain and Hypurrscan, traders can monitor funding rate shifts, perp basis, and open interest changes to gauge positioning pressure on ETH (source: @lookonchain, Hypurrscan).

According to the source, Bitcoin’s price printed at $0 on Paradex’s perpetuals exchange, triggering a liquidation cascade and prompting a chain rollback on that venue (source: public X post dated Jan 19, 2026). This rollback can affect trade validity, realized PnL, and liquidation states for impacted accounts on the platform, heightening execution and counterparty risk in the near term (source: public X post dated Jan 19, 2026). Traders should reassess open exposure on Paradex-linked instruments, review stops and limits for potential inconsistencies, and monitor BTC perps funding, open interest, and spreads on other venues for spillover signs (source: public X post dated Jan 19, 2026).
