#2026年比特币行情展望 On-chain tracking revealed a key piece of information — a whale address that once sold 255 BTC in one go started playing with multi-asset leverage combinations on January 3rd. The moves were indeed aggressive: opening 10x short positions on $BTC, pushing $ETH to 15x, and directly topping $SOL and $XRP to 20x, even pressing 3x on $STBL.

The ideal was perfect. But what happened? When the market turned, this whale was hammered by a reverse move. Unrealized losses instantly exceeded seven million USD. Even more heartbreaking, the account went from a peak profit of 5.5 million to a net loss of 2.5 million today. This is the magic of leverage — the profit amplifier instantly becomes a loss accelerator. The market has no such thing as absolute smart money, only moments of being proven wrong.

BTC3,75%

ETH5,4%

SOL1,93%

XRP2,84%

Whales also get wrecked, this move is truly incredible... A large holder with 255 BTC was actually hammered back by 20x leveraged SOL. I told you, leverage is just gambling. Ha, it's another story of "smart money," and the ending is always the same. That's why I only trade spot; leverage is really addictive... Watching unrealized gains of five million suddenly turn into a loss of two hundred fifty thousand, how painful that must be. Opening such a strong short and still trying to catch the bottom? The market loves to slap the faces of these "smart people." Honestly, whales are pointless; they dared to play without understanding this year's market trend. This guy probably jumped in without confidence in the market... a lesson worth millions. A reverse hammer hit seven million... worth it. This is the market's tuition.

Whales are also being liquidated, this is outrageous. Leveraged players are all going to end up like this, right?

Haha, another whale gets wiped out by a reverse hammer. This is the true face of leverage. --- A large holder with 255 BTC can also flip over, what does that tell us? We must stay alert. --- Losing 7 million USD, this is the real "market education." --- From earning 5.5 million to losing 2.5 million, the speed of this reversal is incredible. --- Leverage is truly a poison. The profit amplifier turns into a meat grinder for losses. No doubt about it. --- Even the smartest money can't withstand a market turn. It's hilarious. --- This whale probably just wants to experience the feeling of "rocket overreach." --- Playing SOL and XRP with 20x leverage is really betting against the market. No good outcome. --- Seeing this news makes me feel at ease. It shows that no one can truly control the market consistently. --- I didn't even react when floating losses broke 7 million. How fast must that have been?

This whale probably thinks of himself as a god, but the market slapped him hard in return. Seven million dollars gone just like that—this is the true face of leverage. --- Another story of "I'm the smart money," ending up as market fodder. 20x leverage? Are you crazy? --- Short positions wiped out due to liquidation—deserved it. Trading without stop-loss is just gambling. --- From a profit of 5.5 million to a loss of 2.5 million... Just thinking about it is exciting. How strong must one's mental resilience be? --- On-chain data can be tracked down to the details. This whale is not even as good as me bottom-fishing in the group. --- Just bored, multi-asset leverage is a recipe for disaster. --- When the market turns, the whale goes bankrupt, showing that even smart money has to watch the market's face. --- This guy really dares to play, going all-in with 15x, 20x leverage, but ended up getting headshot.

Haha, even whales have their moments of wreckage. Leverage is truly a double-edged sword. This is what you call greediness leading to overreach, playing with 20x leverage and still not enough... Seven million instantly evaporated. That must be so painful, I can't even. Smart money can't save the life of leverage either, it's hilarious. So, it's better to be cautious and not be blinded by returns.

Even the big whales can't escape the grip of leverage. Seven million dollars just evaporated, and this deal was pretty brutal.

Damn, going all-in with 20x leverage, this guy is really brave... As a result, the market slapped him back, with a floating loss of 7 million. Not cool? Whales can also crash, what does that mean? Leverage is a double-edged sword, every cut is deadly. The capital from selling 255 BTC was completely lost on leverage, this is explosive news. The happiness of truly wealthy people is beyond our small investors' imagination... From a profit of 5.5 million to a loss of 2.5 million? The speed of this reversal is incredible, the market loves this kind of move. Leverage is not a game for smart money; it's a slaughterhouse for psychological warfare. Did you hear? This whale has gone silent on social media now...

This whale is really outrageous, 20x SOL directly gives others a head start, no wonder it got liquidated haha --- Three million gone, it seems leverage is truly a double-edged sword --- Smart money also has its crashes, now I understand --- Selling 255 BTC and still playing with leverage, greed is insatiable, swallowing an elephant --- From a profit of 5.5 million to a loss of 2.5 million, it was just a moment --- This guy has enough guts, but the market is even bigger --- Opening a 10x short isn't enough? It has to be 20x, this is a gamble for life --- Getting hammered in the opposite direction shows that whales also can't predict the market --- Leverage is indeed a harvesting tool, didn't escape --- On-chain big players have all crashed, what are we retail investors still playing for
