On January 8th, a leading trader's Ethereum long position in their address shifted from unrealized profit to unrealized loss. According to on-chain data monitoring, this trader previously made over $1.1 million in profit, but their current holdings have now become problematic.
Specifically, they hold two main positions: one is a 25x leveraged long of 9,700 ETH, currently with an unrealized loss of $97,000, with a liquidation price set at $2,952.48; the other is a 10x leveraged long of 265,000 HYPE tokens, which still has an unrealized profit of $61,000, with a liquidation price of $19.4049.
The reversal from profit to loss highlights the risks of high-leverage trading — seemingly stable positions can quickly turn in the face of market volatility. Especially for large-cap coins like Ethereum, leveraged longs can be liquidated with even a slight misstep. This case serves as a reminder to traders that even if unrealized gains are substantial, failing to take profits or adjust risk exposure in time can ultimately lead to losses.
