- Whale closes leveraged ETH position with $710,000 loss.
- High-volatility event impacts ETH market.
- No official remarks from industry leaders detected.
The “Three Battles ETH 100% Win Rate Whale” closed its position with a $710,000 loss on July 10, 2025, after strategically shorting ETH with high leverage using Wintermute and Coinbase exchanges.
The event reflects the inherent risk of leveraged positions even for seasoned traders and suggests potential temporary volatility in ETH markets.
The whale, known for a 100% win rate in previous ETH trades, took a 15x leveraged short position on 40,000–50,000 ETH with notable unrealized profits. The final position saw an unexpected loss when stopped out, marking a stark contrast from prior wins.
The involved entity, likely a sophisticated quant operation, used major venues like Wintermute. The whale’s activity sparked ETH market fluctuations, particularly journeying through unrealized gains to final losses but no systemic crisis occurred.
Historically, similar whale efforts in large shorts, especially with high leverage, result in sharp ETH price volatility, but this occurrence appears limited to order book disruption. This case reflects the complexities of high-leverage trading in crypto environments.
