How Did the Trader Perform? Profit or Loss? On March 12, 2025, an anonymous trader (wallet "0xf3f4") opened a long ETH position worth over $300 million on Hyperliquid. What’s interesting is that the trader only used $15.23 million USDC as capital, meaning they were leveraging between 13.5x and 19.2x—an extremely high-risk move. 👀 If you don’t trade Futures, you might not fully grasp the risk level here, but in this market, running a 3x on leverage can already get you liquidated in no time. At one point, as ETH pumped, this trader was sitting on a potential $8 million profit. However, when ETH dropped to $1,839, their position got liquidated. 🤑 Luckily, before that happened, they had already closed 15,000 ETH and withdrawn $17.09 million USDC, securing a realized profit of $1.86 million. But the real question is: Why did Hyperliquid take a $4 million loss? 🤔
