BTC short position loss event: Insights from the whale address closing 68.95 BTC within 2 hours

【Blockchain Rhythm】There’s an interesting phenomenon. Recently, a monitored address (0x3bcae) closed a short position of 68.95 BTC two hours ago, resulting in a loss of $14,000. Currently, the address’s holdings are still mainly short positions, with an unrealized loss of about $15,000.

What’s interesting is that this address’s trading style is quite distinctive—frequent switching between multiple strategies, with a particular preference for overnight positions. In terms of risk control, it is quite strict, but the timing of this liquidation seems a bit less ideal. This kind of predominantly short-selling strategy has indeed been prone to pitfalls in the recent market conditions.

Short sellers are really bad at timing this wave, still stubbornly taking the bait in this market...

Short position pitfalls are so severe, and you're still holding the position? You're really brave.

This guy timed it perfectly; even though the risk control was solid, the market just slapped him in the face.
