HyperLiquid's six major high-leverage whales all liquidated, with an average loss of over $40 million per person

2025.11.05 11:25:57

On November 5th, according to the statistics of EmberCN, all six high-leverage contract whales on HyperLiquid faced liquidation after making tens of millions of dollars in substantial profits. On average, each person suffered a loss of more than $40 million. The details are as follows: James Wynn used a principal of $21.77 million and achieved a peak profit of $87 million. He once opened a long position of BTC worth $1.23 billion on Hyperliquid. In the end, he not only lost all his profits but also his entire principal, resulting in liquidation. The "Insider Whale" falling used a principal of $3 million and achieved a peak profit of $26 million. They were previously good at placing bets before data and policy announcements but ended up making consecutive wrong bets and losing all their profits and principal. The whale AguilaTrades used a principal of $37.62 million and achieved a peak profit of $41.7 million. Every time they increased their position to $400 million, there was a retracement, and eventually, the account was wiped out. The "Rolling Long Whale" used a principal of $125,000 and achieved a peak profit of $43 million, with a return rate of 344 times. However, due to the rolling strategy, the market reversal caused their liquidation, and all funds were lost in a short period. The "Brother Buddy" Huang Li used a principal of $15.29 million and achieved a peak profit of $44.84 million. He mainly went long and ended up being liquidated when he insisted on going long during a market crash. The "Former 100% Win Rate Whale" used a principal of $30.17 million and achieved a maximum of 14 consecutive wins with a peak profit of $26.6 million. However, after the winning streak, increasing the position size led to continuous losses, and the account was emptied.

Analysis: Deleveraging Process Accelerates, Binance’s Bitcoin Open Interest Positions Fall 17% in One Month

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost noted in a recent post that BTC open interest on Binance has fallen 17% from $10.6 billion to $8.8 billion in less than a month. Meanwhile, its 180-day moving average has risen from $8.4 billion to $8.6 billion. With open interest dropping below the moving average, the market is showing new deleveraging signals. In bull markets, this signal typically emerges near the end of a market correction, reflecting traders cutting leveraged exposure—both through voluntary position closures and forced liquidations due to insufficient margin. Outside of bear markets where this process can drag on for months, the last similar signal occurred in June this year, when BTC traded below $60,000 before rallying to over $87,000, a gain of more than 45%. Alongside the current open interest decline, the market has also seen massive liquidations. Low volatility appears to have pushed some traders to take on higher risks to offset insufficient returns from narrowed price swings, leaving them more exposed to market reversals. Over the past three months, Binance’s monthly liquidation volumes have hit their highest levels since 2021: over $1.4 billion in August, $1.1 billion in September, and $1.3 billion in October. This trend is continuing in November; as of the end of the first half of the month, liquidations have already exceeded $520 million. These figures underscore the potential losses leveraged trading can inflict on investors. In a market environment marked by low volatility and shrinking trading volumes, blindly increasing risk exposure out of impatience can quickly lead to heavy costs. That said, the deleveraging phase also helps improve market conditions. Reduced leveraged positions lower the risk of cascading liquidations, allowing spot demand to play a larger role in market pricing, thereby helping Bitcoin build a more robust market structure.

It is reported that this whale was previously the largest bull on ZHIPU, suffered heavy losses when liquidating its position on October 20 amid the stock's continuous pullback, and has since remained inactive without opening any new positions.

Google rolls out another multi-user AI tool: Users can create tools simply by mentioning others, and it supports family sharing.

Beating AI News: Google Labs has launched a new product called Tabletop, enabling multiple users to directly create and utilize small tools via AI. For instance, when a family plans a trip, they can input materials such as attractions and web links into a shared space, then @Tabletop to generate an itinerary, restaurant voting tools, and expense-splitting functions. All members can collaborate in real time, and the AI tools can be further modified as needed. This September, Google upgraded its personal Agent CC to a home edition, supporting up to 6 users. CC comes with its own Google account and independent cloud PC; upon authorization, it can access members’ emails, calendars, and Google Drive files, automatically organize family schedules, generate daily briefings, and even execute certain tasks. Tabletop remains in the experimental stage and is currently accepting waitlist applications only from users aged 18 and above in the United States.
