January 9 – Per data from the Coinbob Popular Address Monitor (https://t.me/Coinbob_track_CN), the "Strategy Whale" address (0x94d) opened long positions across 10 cryptocurrencies in the early hours of today. As of now, its total long position size has hit $356 million, with 15x-leveraged BTC and ETH longs leading the way—each holding a position of roughly $137 million. Around 7:00 AM ET today, the address significantly reduced its SOL long position by ~165,000 coins (valued at ~$23.2 million), cutting its SOL long from $54 million to $30.7 million. Key long position details follow: - 15x BTC Long: ~$137M position size, avg entry price $90,600, floating profit $680k - 15x ETH Long: ~$137M position size, avg entry price $3,104, floating profit $660k - 20x XRP Long: ~$403M position size, avg entry price $2.11, floating profit $290k - 20x SOL Long: ~$30.7M position size, avg entry price $135, floating profit $870k Overnight and this morning, the address closed all short positions on six major coins to lock in profits, with a total position size exceeding $240 million. Its BTC short closeout topped $140 million, generating a total profit of ~$3.26 million. Notably, this address was previously the largest BTC short holder on the Hyperliquid platform. The whale began accumulating positions in December 2023 with an initial account size of ~$20 million, later ramping up short positions in mainstream coins like BTC and ETH. Given its trading direction directly opposing MicroStrategy (the public company continuously buying BTC), the market has labeled it the crypto asset’s explicit "on-chain counterpart."
