История предостережения о биткоине: как этот популярный трейдер потерял 100 миллионов долларов и остался с менее чем 1000

[lklol]

Attention has again been drawn to the popular trader James Wynn, who went from a high of almost $100 million in profits to less than $1000 in his Hyperliquid account at the moment. The trader continues to trade Bitcoin and was recently liquidated as the market recovered.

Popular Bitcoin Trader Who Went From Almost $100 Million To Below $1,000

HypurrScan data shows that popular Bitcoin trader James Wynn’s account has gone from a peak of $84.21 million in May 2025 to $914.21 at the moment. The trader gained prominence for reaching a $84 million peak in just over two months after he began trading on the decentralized exchange (DEX) Hyperliquid.

The trader stacked these profits through high-leveraged bets, including betting on Bitcoin. A major highlight of the trader’s journey was building a $1.25 billion BTC position by going long with 40x leverage on the leading crypto. This was one of the largest Bitcoin positions at the time, which drew more attention to the trader.

That position was eventually liquidated, and since then, the Bitcoin trader has lost up to $100 million on his positions. Further data from HypurrScan data show that he currently has a loss of $22 million all-time PnL (Profit and Loss) on Hyperliquid. Wynn was notably a bull as his trading profits on Hyperliquid climbed to a peak of $84 million.

However, since the crash in his trading profits, the trader’s sentiment toward Bitcoin has continued to flip. Towards the end of last year, he became largely bearish on BTC, rightly predicting that the leading crypto would suffer a long-term downtrend. Bitcoin has been in a downtrend since reaching an all-time high (ATH) of $126,000. Earlier this year, in February, Wynn predicted that BTC would still drop to as low as $48,000 in this bear market.

More Liquidations Amid Bearish Sentiment

On-chain analytics platform Lookonchain revealed that James Wynn was recently liquidated on his Bitcoin position as the crypto market recovered amid the U.S.-Iran ceasefire. The trader had shorted Bitcoin just below $67,000 and got liquidated as the price hit $67,900. Lookonchain noted that the trader has been liquidated six times in just the past two weeks.

Wynn had mainly been shorting Bitcoin while the leading crypto traded in the $67,000 range. However, the leading crypto has yet to make a new low, holding the $66,000 support, and has instead rebounded above the psychological $70,000 level since the U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement. HypurrScan data show that the trader has not opened a new position since the ceasefire agreement.

At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $72,000, up in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
