Whale Adds $9.5M USDC on Hyperliquid to Defend $66.4M ETH Short; Position Down $19.9M — Liquidation Risk and Short Squeeze Watch
According to @rovercrc, a whale deposited 9.5M USDC into Hyperliquid to avoid liquidation on a 66.4M ETH short that is showing an unrealized loss of 19.9M as of Aug 10, 2025, signaling elevated position stress and potential knock-on effects if ETH rises further; source: X/@rovercrc, Aug 10, 2025. On perpetual venues like Hyperliquid, adding collateral reduces liquidation risk by improving margin ratios and pushing the liquidation price farther from spot, which can extend a losing short’s runway; source: Hyperliquid documentation on risk and liquidations. If ETH accelerates higher, forced buybacks from short liquidations can create upward pressure and amplify volatility, a well-documented mechanic of perp markets; source: Binance Futures liquidation and ADL documentation.
