Just like in early April, Trump once again waved his market magic wand and staged a strong action to intensify the conflict, and quick compromise to release the good news. The crypto market also experienced a roller coaster-like market change. The long and short positions took turns to appear, and the crypto market was very lively for a while. Odaily Planet Daily will summarize the representative whales/institutions of the two major alliances in recent times for readers reference.
Longs gain the upper hand, shorts get beaten: ETH longs make a comeback, shorts see sharp profit retracement
After experiencing a market decline driven by geopolitical factors such as the Iran-Israel conflict, many bulls bet that the market would rebound strongly. As Iran and Israel reached a ceasefire agreement under Trumps mediation, the market rebounded as expected. As a result, bulls began to regain the upper hand in the market.
The worst loser: ETH bulls take action, but shorting BTC suffers heavy losses
On June 23, a whale deposited 4.28 million USDC into Hyperliquid and opened a long Ethereum position with a nominal value of $101 million, a leverage of 25 times, and a liquidation price of $2,196. At that time, as the price of ETH rebounded, its accumulated floating profit once reached $1.06 million.
Whale order information
Subsequently, the whale chose to place a limit order when the ETH price was $2,255, and eventually successfully made a profit of $1.36 million. After deducting the $87,000 transaction fee, the net profit was $1.27 million.
But unexpectedly, the whale turned to short BTC with 40x leverage, and eventually had to close positions frequently to stop losses under the stimulus of Trumps good news. At present, the floating loss of the 40x BTC short position of this address is about 970,000 US dollars, and its overall loss has increased to about 3.56 million US dollars, which can be called the worst trader.

ETH smart money: 10x short ETH, profit drawdown of $5 million

Legendary trader AguilaTrades: Opening multiple orders against the market, losing $34 million in 30 days
Previously, trader AguilaTrades increased his BTC long position to more than $400 million at 19:30 on June 20, when the BTC price was about $106,000. Since then, the BTC price has been falling all the way, reaching a low of $102,340. AguilaTrades also suffered a pullback for the third time after a large increase in positions.
Legend has it that AguilaTrades can be called the Little James Wynn. He had frequently opened orders, both long and short, and once had a floating profit of more than 3 million US dollars. But in the end, his high-frequency trading was no match for the volatile crypto market. According to Hypurrscan data, his losses within 30 days were as high as about 34 million US dollars.
The latest data shows that its most recent long position closing occurred at 4:11 pm, which was a profit, with a cumulative profit of approximately US$1 million in 24 hours.
