After Garrett Jin's identity was exposed, he modified his social media privacy settings and deleted some information.

Odaily Planet Daily News Chain Detective Eye posted an update saying: "Hyperliquid giant whale Garrett Jin immediately changed his Telegram privacy settings after my post, hiding his previously public photos and phone number. He also deleted @XHash_com from his personal profile, just like he removed that information from his X profile after @emmettgallic's post was exposed. It seems that he is indeed hiding something."

According to previous news, the community speculated that the whale who opened a huge short position on Hyperliquid three days in advance and made a profit of $200 million was suspected to be Bitforex co-founder Garrett Jin.
