On-chain monitoring data shows that during the hour of January 16, the "20 million wave hunter" (0x880a), known for aggressive leverage trading, made a new move. This time, they directly increased their short positions on SOL and XMR, with the account's unrealized profit soaring to $1.6 million in a short period.

This address's trading style has always been notably aggressive—high leverage and quick in-and-out short-term strategies are standard. The results are quite impressive; over the full cycle, the cumulative profit has reached $96.57 million. Such operational intensity and risk tolerance are indeed beyond what ordinary retail investors can handle. Currently, the shorting opportunities for SOL and XMR seem to have caught this hunter's attention.

0x880a this guy is playing with fire again. A floating profit of 1.6 million just disappeared, isn't that a big deal? --- Short position on SOL? Bro, this time he's betting on a rebound to smash his face in. --- Over 96 million in cumulative profit, really? The risk tolerance level is truly monster-grade. --- Short-term hunters are just short-term hunters. How can they make so much money... Anyway, I just don't understand. --- Playing with leverage so aggressively, you'll eventually suffer a big loss. Isn't this just courting death this time?

Damn, this guy is playing with fire again. I've seen plenty of cases where a floating profit of 1.6 million just disappears. It's both SOL and XMR short positions—this rhythm is really incredible. A total profit of 96.57 million. Luckily, I don't have the guts to be that crazy. Betting so aggressively will eventually backfire; just a matter of when. I'm already tired of this routine. Chasing these kinds of accounts and licking screens every day—what's the point? Alright, I'll just stick to my mid-term strategy and let this guy race ahead with his cars.

96.57 million USD in achievements... No hype, no negativity, this trading strategy is indeed ruthless. But I'm just worried that a market reversal could happen, and leverage is a game of risking it all.

Damn, another 1.6 million profit. This guy is really unbelievable. I'm still debating whether to buy 🤔. --- 96.57 million in total profit? No, how is this played? I need to learn. --- Shorting SOL and XMR? This guy's intuition is really sharp. Why do I always operate in the opposite way? --- High leverage quick in and out. It sounds easy, but a little problem and it's liquidation. So exciting. --- Floating profit of 1.6 million disappearing in an instant is also possible. Watching this kind of operation makes me nervous. --- 0x880a is starting again. This wave hunter is just different. I am a wave wave guardian. --- Truly amazing. How can he make so much? Am I too bad or is he too skilled?

well, *actually* if you look at the on-chain mechanics... 160M in unrealized gains means nothing until settlement. leverage that aggressive typically blows up within the week tbh

Damn, it's 0x880a again. This guy's guts are really incredible. The feeling of a $1.6 million unrealized profit disappearing just like that.
