Bitcoin Updates: Major Whale Makes Bold Long Position Despite Market Uncertainty After Liquidations
- Whale 0x960 opened $37M BTC/ETH long positions with 15x leverage, risking liquidation at $3,705 (BTC) and $10,500 (ETH). - BTC ETFs gained $90.6M inflows while ETH ETFs lost $93.6M, reflecting diverging investor sentiment amid $111K BTC and $3,932 ETH prices. - Recent $19B crypto liquidation event highlighted market vulnerability to whale-driven shorting, with 79% of traders expecting prolonged US government shutdown. - Divergent whale strategies show $8.09M gains vs. $5.52M losses, while BTC crossing $1

The 0x960 whale’s tactics are further complicated by recent events. Just 12 hours before opening its long trades, the address’s BTC short was liquidated by a stop-loss, according to LookOnChain. Other whales are seeing mixed results: one has an unrealized profit of $8.09 million on a 13x leveraged BTC long, while another is facing a $5.52 million loss on a BTC short. These varied outcomes highlight the crypto market’s volatility and the high-risk stakes of leveraged trading.
Analysts point out that the whale’s moves could impact price trends. Should Bitcoin surpass $118,000, major CEXs could see $945 million in short positions liquidated, while a drop below $113,000 could trigger $964 million in long liquidations, based on LookOnChain data. The 0x960 whale’s positions, with liquidation points well below current prices, suggest strong confidence in continued price growth, though the high leverage means losses could be severe if the market turns.
