The Air Force Commander makes a major move again! After a whale cleared 199 million, the 12-hour holding rebounded to $300 million

【CryptoWorld】On-chain data shows that on January 23, the super whale address (0xd83), which plays the role of “Air Force Commander” in the derivatives market, was cleared of $199 million yesterday and quickly regrouped. This whale’s operations in the past 24 hours have been highly aggressive—rolling over short positions on mainstream coins like BTC and ETH, while also shorting SOL with 20x leverage, with a single coin position reaching 123,000 tokens, equivalent to approximately $15.86 million.

After this round of adjustments, the total holdings of this address rebounded from $266 million after the liquidation to $305 million, with unrealized gains increasing by about $2.6 million in the past 24 hours. Specific holdings include: BTC shorts expanded to $150 million, with an average price around $91,000 and a liquidation price of $91,800; ETH shorts increased to $106 million, with an average price of $3,067 and a liquidation price of $3,061—only $6 apart, indicating very high risk; PEPE shorts rose from $13.3 million to $19.3 million, with an average price of $0.0049. The newly opened SOL short position has an average price of $127.9, with a liquidation price of $157.

This is not the first large-scale operation by this whale. Previously, its short positions in BTC, ETH, PEPE, XRP, and other tokens approached $500 million, making it one of the largest on-chain short sellers for these tokens. But on January 22 at 3:30 AM, the tide turned—five token positions were hit by dozens of liquidations in succession, with single liquidation amounts nearing $200 million, resulting in a loss of over $20 million.

Now re-entering the market, is this giant whale betting on a downward trend? Or is it adjusting its strategy? The market is watching.
