#美国非农就业数据未达市场预期 Whales are playing tricks again! Just took profits on BTC long and turned around to short ETH



On January 13, on-chain data captured an interesting move: the well-known aggressive address "Lightning Reversal" (0x50b30) performed a reverse switch again.

Here's the situation—this address first closed its BTC long position, earning a profit of $5,300. It doesn't seem like much, but the key point is the next move: it immediately switched to a short position on ETH.

**Current Position Data:**
ETH Short Position: 11,694.63 ETH
Leverage: 14x
Entry Price: $3,088.64
Unrealized Loss: approximately $2.8 million

Why mention this? Because this isn't a random move. The strategy of this account is very clear: **quick in and out for BTC to catch short-term gains, but heavily betting on ETH with 14x leverage**.

In other words, it wants to quickly profit from BTC and exit, but is choosing to hold a heavily leveraged short on ETH. The signal behind this is worth pondering—either the confidence in a sharp decline is very high, or it’s positioning for larger volatility.

More importantly, such big players known for being "quick to react and aggressive in betting" often continue despite significant floating losses, which usually indicates two possibilities: either they are very confident in the direction, or the real market volatility has yet to begin.

The ETH long-short boundary is being constantly tested by these aggressive shorts. Whoever can't hold on first may soon reveal the true picture.

2.8 million floating loss and still not cutting losses? This guy must either have a screw loose or really knows something we don't...

Damn, holding on through a 14x loss of 2.8 million without cutting losses? This guy either truly has some insight or is just a gambler. If ETH rebounds this time... hey, I'm just waiting to watch the show.

14x leverage to hold a loss of 2.8 million, this guy is really tough... Either he's stubborn or he's seen something we can't see.

14x leverage holding a 2.8 million unrealized loss without stopping out—this guy is really confident, either making a killing or going crazy.
