【BitPush】Hyperliquid platform’s capital game has become more interesting. According to on-chain data, the current position size controlled by the whale camp has reached $6.933 billion, but there is a clear divergence between longs and shorts — longs hold $3.374 billion (48.66%), while shorts hold $3.56 billion (51.34%).

What’s more intriguing is the profit and loss performance. Long positions are already in loss, with an unrealized loss of $41.6 million; in contrast, shorts are making money, with an unrealized profit close to $100 million ($99.94 million). This indicates that recent price swings have favored the short side.

Looking closely at specific positions, a whale named 0xb317…ae has used 5x leverage to buy ETH at a price of $3,147.39 with a full position. Currently, the account shows an unrealized loss of $33.89 million. This bold gamble reflects the large holder’s bullish outlook on the market, despite the somewhat poor performance so far.

This whale buddy is really a bit outrageous, throwing over $3,000 all-in with 5x leverage. Now it's a huge loss, but I like this kind of gambling spirit. Let's see if he can turn it around later.

The short sellers made a killing this round, while the longs are still holding on... That @0xb317@ guy is really risking his life betting on the rise.

This wave of shorting was indeed satisfying, but this whale is throwing all in with 5x leverage... Are you guys just arguing with the market?

Shorts win big, longs get wiped out—this market is so realistic... Whale Brother is still holding on after losing over 33 million, is this really faith recharging?

The bears are really enjoying it, and the guys who went long are having a tough time...

Shorts are feeling great right now, but this guy with more than 5x ETH is still holding on stubbornly—big player with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

The bears are eating meat, and the bulls are bleeding. This is the current situation.
