【BiTi】On-chain data shows that an active whale just closed a short position of 100 BTC at 14:37, directly earning $22,000 from this operation. There are no holdings left in this address now, and it is in a watchful state.

This whale’s trading style is quite interesting—especially skilled at catching short-term opportunities, but the risks are indeed significant. His long-term track record is mainly balanced by a few large orders, but his performance this month has been somewhat disappointing, with losses indicating that his strategy isn’t always stable. It might be due to increased market volatility, even seasoned traders have to admit that uncertainty is rising.

2.2 million USD to walk away completely, this whale is still somewhat sober --- Short-term big players are also starting to hold back, the market is really hard to predict --- 100 short positions all at once, really brave, but I respect the timely take profit --- Recently, everyone's strategies are not very stable, with such big fluctuations, who can be sure --- Looking at this address now has liquidated, indicating he's also starting to chicken out --- Relying on a few big orders to even out the account? Sounds more like gambling, sooner or later he'll have to pay --- This is how short-term players are, they make quick profits and lose just as fast, luckily he ran fast this time

Made a profit of 22,000 and then ran. Smart people, with such big market fluctuations, who still dares to be greedy?

2.2 million dollars to walk away completely, this guy knows when to take profits --- 100 short positions closed so quickly? I think the market is starting to act weird again --- Relying on a few large orders to even out the books, honestly, it's just gambling, right? The risk is huge --- Recently, no one is stable in this market, even whales are watching from the sidelines. I’ve just laid flat --- Getting 22,000 dollars and then running away—that's what a real trader should do --- Daring to continue shorting despite monthly losses, really brave... or maybe a bit reckless? --- Now I have no positions at all, maybe this is the wisest choice --- Even short-term experts have their crashes; with such market volatility, whoever can survive is already a winner --- Is just 22,000 dollars considered real? This whale fund scheme isn't that great either --- The volume of 100 BTC short positions was digested so quickly, are there still people taking the other side?

Retiring with just 22,000? This whale's mentality is impressive.

22,000 just to walk away completely? I think this whale is really scared now. Selling 100 BTC short so quickly, are they worried about a rebound or just tired? Short-term eating, long-term starving—that's a routine I'm very familiar with. No one can understand this market recently; even veterans have to lower their heads and behave. It's better to stay on the sidelines; clearing out isn't as good as staying sober.

$22,000 just pulled out? Looks like this whale chickened out --- Same old story, short-term gains and long-term beating, eventually bankruptcy --- Really don't understand why these people insist on betting on short positions, such high risk --- Oh, this month's losses are so big, seems they're not that smart after all --- A short position of 100 BTC closed just like that, this mentality is really strong --- The market is so volatile, hard to hold onto short-term trades, no wonder you get burned --- Just clear your positions and watch, don't mess around anymore, bro --- Make some profit and run, at least this awareness is there, better than randomly gambling --- High risk but at least this time didn't get caught, not bad --- Performance has been poor over the past month? No wonder it's now shrinking and staying still
