Whale action: 1.09 million USDC leveraged shorting of the Nasdaq index

2025-12-22 15:44:11

[Block Rhythm] Recently, a Large Investor conducted a noteworthy operation on-chain. This Whale-level player deposited 1.09 million USDC on the HyperLiquid platform and then opened a short position of XYZ100 with 20x leverage, clearly betting on the decline of the tech stock index.

Interestingly, this Whale's portfolio is quite diversified. In addition to short positions on XYZ100, he also holds short positions on BTC and long positions on FARTCOIN. This combination strategy reveals a lot of information—there is both a bearish outlook on traditional tech assets and a maintained exposure to some crypto assets.

XYZ100 is actually an on-chain version of the Nasdaq 100 index futures, allowing users to trade the rise and fall of the US technology stock index 24/7, and it supports leveraged operations. This type of derivative contract has recently become a key tool for Large Investors.

1.09 million to go all in? This guy's guts are really big, playing XYZ100 with 20x leverage. Are tech stocks really that bearish? BTC shorts and FARTCOIN longs, this combo... is a bit interesting. Feels like betting on the entire market direction. HyperLiquid platform has been really popular lately, but 20x leverage is scary. Slightly opposite movement and liquidation happens. Big investors play like this, and we can only watch.
