I came across an interesting on-chain data point — Address 0x540…3F802 has recently been making big moves on Hyperliquid. This player has essentially become the largest short position on $LIT, demonstrating what it means to "dare to short" with real actions.
The timeline narrows down to the past 2 hours, during which this trader deposited 4.35 million USDC as margin into their account and opened a 1x short position of 1,110,677 LIT. The average opening price was set at $2.74, indicating they came prepared.
However, this trade isn't doing too well right now — unrealized losses have accumulated to $25,000. For a position of this size, if the market moves against it, the psychological test is quite intense. Interestingly, such whale behavior often reflects market participants' short-term outlook on an asset and provides other traders with a reference perspective.

This guy is really ruthless, throwing in 4.35 million USDC like that, now with an unrealized loss of 25,000... his mental resilience must be incredible.

Wow, 4.35 million USDC poured in just to short LIT. This guy is really ruthless... Now he's already lost 25,000. How strong must his mental resilience be?
