XPL Plunges 40% in Rug Pull: Top Five Insider Addresses Make $1.6M Profits and Exit Scam, Triggering $32.99M On-Chain Whale Short

On April 3rd, data from Coinglass and Hyperinsight Monitoring (Telegram: https://t.me/HyperInsight) shows the XPL token price saw sharp overnight volatility. Between 1:00–5:00 AM, XPL surged 42% in a straight line to a high of $0.167. But starting at 5:10 AM, it plummeted over 40% in less than 5 minutes—dropping below $0.12 and erasing all intraday gains. Ahead of the spike, five new Hyperliquid addresses simultaneously deposited funds around 1:00 AM: each transaction exceeded $200k, totaling ~$1.292 million. They then heavily opened leveraged XPL long positions, likely coordinating with buy orders on other platforms to pump the price. During this run, the five addresses racked up massive unrealized profits, more than doubling their initial capital. Between 4:30–4:40 AM, the five addresses quickly withdrew all deposited margins plus gains—pushing their liquidation price sharply higher, near the threshold. At 5:10 AM, they were simultaneously liquidated at ~$0.12971, triggering

Markets interpreted this as a mix of “stickier inflation and a longer tightening cycle,” forming a dual negative feedback loop of tightening liquidity and higher discount rates for risk assets. For the crypto market, the key question is whether global risk appetite has contracted. Oil price gains are essentially a reallocation of global liquidity: more capital is being passively deployed to hedge energy costs and inflation, reducing margin
