UNI short-term rally of 10%! Whales increase positions, shorts close positions, and the battle between bulls and bears intensifies

【Blockchain Rhythm】On December 18th, the crypto market experienced interesting changes. UNI surged by 10% in a short period, currently priced at $5.28. The reason behind this points to a new dual-currency investment product introduced by a major exchange.

On-chain data is even more intriguing. A whale with an address starting with 0x413c on Hyperliquid has an unrealized profit exceeding 50%—this large holder opened a 10x leveraged long position on UNI at midnight yesterday, with an account size of approximately $1.18 million and an average entry price of $4.99. More importantly, this whale has been continuously adding to the position over the past 4 hours, clearly optimistic about the market outlook.

There are also significant moves on the short side. The once-dominant UNI short seller “Shanzhai Short Army Leader” closed over 30% of their short positions at 1 PM yesterday. After this move, the remaining position size is about $3.38 million, with unrealized profits reaching $1.39 million—a return of 410%. From adding to and closing positions, both bulls and bears are actively signaling their stance, and the market sentiment for UNI is clearly shifting.
