The publicly disclosed short-selling ASTER whale's ETH long positions have reduced their unrealized losses by $28 million, having previously been just $28 away from the ETH liquidation price.

According to Odaily Planet Daily, based on monitoring by on-chain analyst Yu Jin, a whale that shorted ASTER after CZ revealed his holdings had its ETH long position only $28 away from its liquidation price of $2,595 when the ETH price fell to $2,623 on the 21st. At that time, the long position had a floating loss of $44 million, and currently has a floating loss of $16.13 million.

If ETH rises to $3,200, long positions could recover from a paper loss of $44 million.
