【Crypto World】Recently, I’ve been looking at Hyperliquid’s trading data and found something interesting. According to Nansen’s monitoring results, the list of traders who made the most profit in the past 90 days has been revealed.

Let’s look at the numbers first—Wanye Kest made $13.68 million profit with two wallets, easily surpassing the second-place Laurent Zeimes ($4.7 million) by several times. Next are CBB with $2.3 million, Nexus with $1.7 million, and CL with $1.1 million. These figures are truly staggering.

But what is most worth pondering behind these numbers? Many people see this leaderboard and their first reaction is to want to learn how they operate. In fact, Nansen’s analysis points out the real secret: consistent profitability isn’t achieved through one-time miraculous moves, but through long-term stable position management.

In other words, the key to these individuals earning so much from Hyperliquid isn’t just their market reading skills, but their strong conviction in their own position strategies. Short-term fluctuations don’t cause them to panic; the true profit logic relies on time and patience. This can still offer some inspiration for traders.

$13.68 million? Come on, I just want to know if this guy has any special relationship with the exchange. --- Stable holdings sound good, but in reality, who can really stick to it? It all depends on market fluctuations and emotional stability. --- Long-term stable allocation... sounds easy, but if you don't have enough capital, you can't really play this game. --- This ranking looks a bit suspicious. Do they really make that much money and still get exposed? --- Want to copy their strategy? First ask yourself if you have the mental toughness to endure it. --- Another wave of survivor bias—those who didn't lose money don't appear on the list. --- Wanye Kest is indeed impressive, but traders of this level are rare, so you can't learn from them. --- I've heard the holding strategy too many times. The key is knowing when to add or reduce positions—who can teach that? --- Numbers can be deceptive; just look at the trading frequency, and you'll see it might not be what we think. --- In the end, it's about having a large principal and a steady mindset; everything else is just superficial.

$13.68 million, really? I need to calm down, this number has completely confused me. Stable holding? Sounds simple, but actually doing it is deadly. It's both rankings and analysis, but honestly, it's just about luck. Why can Wanye Kest outperform so many? I want to know how he actually operates. If it's not a one-time operation, that means enduring long-term, which tests your mentality. Holding position allocation sounds easy to say, but in actual operation, there are all kinds of temptations. Who can resist? Just look at these rankings; don't really think about copying others' paths.

Can stable holdings really earn that much? It seems like it's still about having a good sense of the market. $13.68 million... How did this guy do it? Teach me. Long-term stable allocation? Easier said than done, who can keep their mindset from collapsing? Are some accounts on this leaderboard bots... I don't believe all are real people. With such intense short-term trading, it's better to just relax and hold. Now I believe it. That guy Wanye is indeed ruthless, but the risk isn't small either. One black swan event and it's gone. Beating short-term chasing with holdings, I love to hear that. Finally, someone is telling the truth.
