Remember the trader who fearlessly went 25x long on ETH right after the “1011 flash crash”, and briefly sat on $8.38M in unrealized profits? Well, the story just took a sharp turn.
About 9 hours ago, the so-called “smartest trader” closed out his remaining 19,383.25 ETH long positions in multiple batches, ultimately realizing a $6.646M loss.
Moments later, he flipped his bias completely, opening a massive 25x short worth 18,802.5164 #ETH (over $62M). His entry price sits at $3,337.56, with a liquidation level around $3,577.28, and he’s currently showing a small floating profit.
But zoom out / even after the flip, the overall account remains down by over $5.3M. Maybe he’s aiming to claw back the long losses on this high-stakes short… or maybe it’s another bold play in an endless loop of high-leverage chaos.
