Hyperliquid sees $1.1B Bitcoin long bet opened at 40x leverage
A whale has stunned crypto watchers by making $36 million on a $1.1 billion long Bitcoin bet at 40x leverage as Bitcoin neared $112,000.
A crypto whale has expanded an existing 40x leverage long Bitcoin bet to $1.1 billion on the decentralized exchange Hyperliquid, which has stunned the crypto community and is believed to be the first-ever position exceeding $1 billion on the platform.
The X account “James Wynn” claims to be behind the position, which is now up $36 million on the trade, data from Hypurrscan’s block explorer shows.
A $28.4 million margin position was used across several trades to increase the Bitcoin position, now worth $1.13 billion. The average Bitcoin entry price was $108,065.
“He did it fellas,” crypto analyst Sigma^2 wrote on X. “First position [on Hyperliquid] to exceed $1B.”
Wynn’s long position was at a loss of about $16.3 million before it shot back up as Bitcoin broke through $110,000 on May 21. The position sits comfortably above its liquidation price of $103,790, as Bitcoin has well surpassed $110,000 and neared $112,000 in early trading on May 22.
