【Blockchain Rhythm】 An anonymous address stopped out a significant position during operations early this morning. According to on-chain data monitoring, this address liquidated 2,901.83 AAVE short positions and closed 440,308,509 kPEPE short positions. In simple terms, this operation resulted in a substantial loss — totaling $24,000. This also serves as a reminder that even large-scale players can fall into traps when judging market trends in the crypto space. The recent volatility of AAVE and kPEPE clearly went against this trader’s expectations, ultimately forcing them to accept losses and cut positions. Such events happen daily on the chain, reflecting the divergence and risks among market participants in their market assessments.

$24,000 just disappeared like that, and the short position was also blown out in the opposite direction.

took the L on that one... even the big players miscalculate the difficulty adjustment sometimes, ngl. 24k down is rough but at least they pulled the plug before the miner ran dry completely. reminds me of 2017 when people thought they could predict every pump—spoiler alert, they couldn't.
