ETH price falls below the $3000 mark, triggering significant market volatility. On-chain data shows that a well-known major wallet initiated a short position after the 1011 event, with an overall unrealized loss of $40.46 million. Among them, ETH long positions are the most severely affected, with an unrealized loss of $33.04 million. However, based on the liquidation price of 2073, the account still has a considerable buffer before liquidation. Additionally, this major wallet's BTC position has an unrealized loss of $4.8 million, and its SOL position has an unrealized loss of $2.61 million. Market analysts point out that fluctuations in large positions like these often amplify market volatility, especially during rapid price declines, where chain reactions from liquidations could further increase downward pressure. Investors should closely monitor such whale movements and their impact on liquidity.

ETH-2.01%
BTC-1.4%
SOL-1.07%

Damn, another big whale showing off their losses. This guy's short position strategy directly lost over 40 million, how painful must that be?

Oh no, it's another whale liquidation scenario. This time the loss is quite severe.

Just when ETH dropped to 3000, so many people panicked? I'm seeing a liquidation price of 2073, still quite far away.

Over 40 million in unrealized losses sounds terrifying, but the brother's buffer space is indeed still enough, not directly at risk of liquidation.

The movements of such big traders can indeed trigger chain reactions. I'm just worried that if more followers jump in later, it could become a bigger issue.

Another short position gets hammered, serves you right. I said this rebound was fake all along, and now look at the result.

Damn, 40,460,000 in unrealized losses... How strong must this big investor's mentality be?

Damn, another big whale got trapped. This wave of decline is really fierce.

Big whales still have some buffer, so they're not too worried. What worries me are those without any buffer.

Floating losses exceed 40 million, it's easy to say, but it still hurts when you really lose that much.

Wait, this guy's short position is still losing? Then the longs must be getting slaughtered.

I'm actually waiting for the liquidation chain reaction, the final fall.

Over 40 million in unrealized losses still manageable, how strong is this big investor's mentality?
