A well-known address is currently facing a severe liquidation crisis. This account holds 3,875 ETH long positions, opened at a price of $3,191, and its liquidation price has now approached $3,053. In other words, as ETH drops by about 4%, this massive position will be automatically liquidated by the system.
The data is shocking. The current unrealized loss exceeds $300,000, weekly losses have surged to $1.55 million, and the total loss over the past month has reached $6.31 million. This is not just a fluctuation on paper; real money is rapidly flowing out.
It is worth noting that this address was liquidated once during the ETH crash in October. Now, after adding to the position, it faces the same misfortune, forming a cyclical pattern that is hard to watch.
From an operational perspective, the issues stem from several aspects. First is the dual nature of leverage—during volatile markets, high-multiplier leveraged positions are extremely fragile and can be wiped out with a single tap. Second is the misjudgment of entry timing—establishing long positions at relatively high ETH levels and underestimating the potential for a pullback. A deeper reason may be that many experienced traders are still following the same logic from the previous bull market, without adequately adapting to the significantly changed current market environment.
This incident sends a clear warning to all participants: even large funds face similar risks when choosing the wrong direction and employing high leverage. The market never dismisses individuals' words; it only cares whether the positions are healthy. Risk management should always take precedence over chasing returns.
Mainstream cryptocurrencies like BTC, SOL, and ETH each have their own rhythm, but no matter which asset, using leverage as a double-edged sword improperly will lead to the same consequences. Is your position also on the brink of danger?

Another story of leverage explosion, really incredible, still making the same mistakes?
$6.31 million gone, better remember this lesson.
Adding positions at high levels is just courting death, I don't believe it.
Applying bull market mentality to a bear market, serves you right.
Liquidation at 4%? That's too tight, brother.
It's always like this, I'm tired of seeing it.
This guy is really greedy.
Leverage, it's just two words—gambling.
Still dare to add more? I wouldn't dare.
The crypto world is never short of these "big brains."

Another big trader has blown up their leverage. Is this the same old story, needing two attempts instead of one?
Damn, a monthly loss of $6.31 million. What kind of heart do you need to keep scrolling on your phone?
High leverage can make you a lot of money in a bull market, but when the bear market hits, everything is just paper tigers. Can't you learn this every time?
A 4% drop and you're liquidated. What does that say? The position was already unhealthy, yet still holding on stubbornly. Truly reckless.
Getting liquidated once in October and still daring to add to the position. Isn't that just seeking death?
Leverage, once used, no one can control their greed.
I'm now worried—could the next liquidation be someone in this group?
It seems that big funds are not some stable money-making machines either; they can be even more aggressive than small investors like us.
This guy should switch careers and become a textbook. Using real money to teach everyone what risk management really is.
3875 ETH. How many assets did he have to sell to bottom fish? And this is how he played it.

Oh no, it's the same old trick again. Trying to buy the dip at high levels and relying on the same bullish logic from the last bull market... You should have recognized the current environment long ago.

This guy really is, settling once in October and still not learning his lesson, adding more positions... this is just ridiculous.
