While Bitcoin (BTC) has been stable above <strong>$84,000<\/strong> since last Tuesday, a crypto whale decided to take a radical <strong>short position.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Hyperliquid data, this trader opened a short position on Bitcoin worth over <strong>$445 million,<\/strong> while also betting long on the memecoin MELANIA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After closing the position, the whale made over <strong>$10 million<\/strong> following last night&#8217;s drop to <strong>$81,900<\/strong> per Bitcoin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This position was opened with a <strong>40x leverage<\/strong> and a liquidation price set at <strong>$86,000<\/strong>. As a result of this ambitious position, a group of crypto traders gathered to attempt to liquidate it. The trader CBB issued a call on the X network to gather numerous millionaires to try to liquidate the whale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We have lost a battle but we have not lost the war.<br><br>Locked in.<br><br>\ud83c\udfaf\ud83c\udfaf\ud83c\udfaf <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7FX2by1diu\">pic.twitter.com\/7FX2by1diu<\/a><\/p>&mdash; CBB (bera era) (@Cbb0fe) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Cbb0fe\/status\/1901318796243050843?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 16, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, BTC pumped to <strong>$85,100<\/strong> yesterday in a massive candle.

No one can question a Hyperliquid position, just as no one can question a Bitcoin balance. The decentralized future is here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>In this context, some whales may also use this to <strong>manipulate the market.<\/strong> By opening such a significant short on Hyperliquid and taking a more substantial long position on another exchange away from prying eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, according to Karl from High Stakes Capital, this whale is not an &#8220;insider&#8221; but merely a &#8220;gambler.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Never a dull day in crypto.
