On January 18th, on-chain data revealed an interesting trading signal. This well-known whale, who previously sold 255 BTC, has recently been very active in the derivatives market—opening a 5x short position on DASH and a 10x long position on DOGE. However, these new positions are only part of its massive asset portfolio, with the whale currently maintaining substantial long positions in BTC, ETH, and SOL, totaling approximately $457 million. The only downside is that these main positions have recently unrealized losses of $3.3 million. It seems that even experienced whales are under market volatility pressure. This move may reflect a certain judgment by large on-chain holders about the current market structure—being bearish on some smaller coins while maintaining confidence in mainstream ecosystems. It is worth closely monitoring the next moves of these leading players.

DASH16.66%
DOGE-1.24%
ETH0.57%

Even whales have to suffer losses. 457 million still has an unrealized loss of 3.3 million. This wave is a bit painful.

Whale lost 3.3 million but is still playing DOGE with 10x leverage. This person really has some guts.

Oh no, this whale is starting to lose too, 3.3 million... Our group of small retail investors actually haven't experienced such big fluctuations in heartbeat, haha. But DOGE 10x long? This guy really dares to play, I think he's betting on the narrative of Dogecoin, but the risk... Mom, even with such a large unrealized loss, he's still stubbornly holding onto BTC. Now that's true faith.

lmao even the "smart money" is bleeding $3.3m on their core positions... that's what i call a humbling reality check. this whale's probably thinking they've got it all figured out with their hedges, but the market's always got something darker up its sleeve.

Whales are also losing money; this wave of market movement isn't that simple after all.
