The giant investor who profited by shorting during the crypto crash once again made a move. They ear

Another “miracle trade” has occurred in the crypto market! Do you remember that giant trader who made a fortune of $192 million by going short during the last crypto crisis? He’s done it again! This time, just minutes after Trump announced new tariffs, he quietly opened short positions on the Hyperliquid platform. As expected, the price of the cryptocurrency dropped, and this trader once again made millions of dollars. Such precise timing makes people wonder—is it luck, or does he have an extraordinary sense of information? Either way, this “predictive” trading strategy has once again sparked discussions among investors about institutional movements and big player trading tactics.

The same large speculator who recently made a profit of $192 million by going short in the crypto derivatives market has opened another short position.

The wealthy trader from the Hyperliquid decentralized derivatives exchange (0xb317) opened a 10x leverage perpetual contract worth $163 million on Sunday, going short on Bitcoin.

This 10x leverage position has already generated a profit of $3.5 million. However, if the price of Bitcoin rises to $125,500, the position will be liquidated.

This trading entity attracted attention from the crypto community for opening short positions 30 minutes before Trump announced tariffs on Friday. This action led to a sharp drop in the crypto market, but it still resulted in a profit of $192 million.

“Insider Trader” Under Question

Due to the highly precise timing of these transactions, this entity in the crypto community is referred to as “Insider Whale”. It typically enters positions just minutes before significant announcements are made. Some believe that this “Whale” played a key role in triggering massive liquidations, leading to a sharp drop in the crypto market over the weekend. Observer “MLM” said, “It’s worth noting that a few minutes before the market crash, he also shorted Bitcoin and Ethereum worth tens of millions of dollars. This is just one example of his actions on Hyperliquid. It’s impossible to imagine what he might do on centralized exchanges or other platforms.” “I’m sure this person played an important role in what happened today.” According to HyperTracker, since Friday’s crash, more than 250 wallets on Hyperliquid have lost their status as millionaires. Meanwhile, another bullish trader opened a long position in Bitcoin worth $11 million, using a leverage ratio of 40 times. Janis Kluge, a researcher at SWP Berlin, said, “Crypto users finally understand what a unregulated market means: insider trading, corruption, crime, and zero responsibility.” Binance denied any involvement in the market crash. Some believe that Binance may have played a role in this crash, with its order books and market makers reportedly malfunctioning, stop-loss orders not being executed, traders being forced to liquidate their positions, and various tokens reportedly losing all their value. However, the exchange issued a update to users, stating that there was no real crash, but rather a “display issue”.According to the company’s statement on Sunday, “We have noticed the various theories circulating in the market regarding the cause of this incident. Some people are also questioning the role of Binance platform in this situation.”

Binance stated that during the incident, its core contracts, spot trading engine, and API transactions remained operational.

Binance denied that the withdrawal of USDE, BNSOL, and WBETH caused the market collapse. Instead, they offered compensation of approximately $283 million to traders who had to withdraw their assets as collateral.

BNB experienced a strong rebound, rising by 14% in the past 24 hours, and once again breaking through the $1300 mark.
