HyperLiquid's six major high-leverage whales all liquidated, with an average loss of over $40 million per person

2025.11.05 11:25:57

On November 5th, according to the statistics of EmberCN, all six high-leverage contract whales on HyperLiquid faced liquidation after making tens of millions of dollars in substantial profits. On average, each person suffered a loss of more than $40 million. The details are as follows: James Wynn used a principal of $21.77 million and achieved a peak profit of $87 million. He once opened a long position of BTC worth $1.23 billion on Hyperliquid. In the end, he not only lost all his profits but also his entire principal, resulting in liquidation. The "Insider Whale" falling used a principal of $3 million and achieved a peak profit of $26 million. They were previously good at placing bets before data and policy announcements but ended up making consecutive wrong bets and losing all their profits and principal. The whale AguilaTrades used a principal of $37.62 million and achieved a peak profit of $41.7 million. Every time they increased their position to $400 million, there was a retracement, and eventually, the account was wiped out. The "Rolling Long Whale" used a principal of $125,000 and achieved a peak profit of $43 million, with a return rate of 344 times. However, due to the rolling strategy, the market reversal caused their liquidation, and all funds were lost in a short period. The "Brother Buddy" Huang Li used a principal of $15.29 million and achieved a peak profit of $44.84 million. He mainly went long and ended up being liquidated when he insisted on going long during a market crash. The "Former 100% Win Rate Whale" used a principal of $30.17 million and achieved a maximum of 14 consecutive wins with a peak profit of $26.6 million. However, after the winning streak, increasing the position size led to continuous losses, and the account was emptied.

Fed's Collins: Will Support September Interest Rate Hike If Inflation Remains Elevated

According to a report by the Financial Times, Federal Reserve official Collins stated that escalating tensions related to Iran have exacerbated cost-of-living pressures, leaving low-income Americans struggling to make ends meet. She warned that the Federal Reserve may need to raise interest rates to curb inflation. Collins noted that businesses and households in the U.S. Northeast are being squeezed by inflation, which has exceeded the central bank’s 2% target for over five years. “I hear about price issues almost every time I talk to businesses,” she said. She added: “Among low- and middle-income households, I’m increasingly hearing about the challenges they face… such as struggling to make ends meet. Energy prices are truly unbearable, especially in our region.” Collins currently does not hold a voting seat on the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). She supported keeping interest rates steady in July, and views the current rate level as “slightly restrictive,” which “will lead to a gradual, sustained decline in inflation expectations.” However, she noted that if economic data indicates a need for a rate hike, she is willing to support raising rates as early as September. “I do believe economic conditions in the coming months may require tighter policy, and in that case, I am prepared to raise interest rates,” she said.

Layer 1 blockchain project Harmony responds to the abnormal ONE token over-issuance incident: It is working with trading platforms to freeze the relevant funds.

Harmony Protocol announced in a post that its team is collaborating with relevant exchanges to attempt to block and freeze funds involved in the incident, while developing a fix and evaluating rollback options. Earlier, on-chain data analysis indicated that Harmony had likely been hacked, with attackers exploiting an empty blocks vulnerability to mint approximately 4 billion ONE tokens without authorization—accounting for around 26% of the current total supply. Around 2.8 billion of these ONE tokens were subsequently transferred to exchanges, triggering market selling pressure and leading to a sharp drop in ONE’s price. According to analysis, the attackers exploited a flaw in the supply verification mechanism, causing the totalSupply interface to fail to reflect the actual number of newly minted tokens in a timely manner and masking the inflationary impact. Harmony stated that it will update the incident’s progress once more information becomes available. The incident remains under investigation at this time.
