Liang Xi's Massive Loss: When Influencers Lose Their Balance, Fans Become Sacrificial Chips
Liang Xi was once a leader in the hearts of countless short-sellers. When he called for a short, everyone responded; when he made a profit, fans celebrated with him. However, this time, he is not leading a trade but leading a collapse.
He claims to have lost 10 million dollars, and the cooperative account has lost another 20 million, the reason being "Bitcoin isn't falling," while he kept averaging down. Behind this is his carefully constructed narrative of "sure profits," his credibility in rallying large investors, and the blind trust fans had in following him.
But the market shows no mercy. 100,000, 105,000, 110,000... Bitcoin keeps rising, and he has no stop-loss mechanism, forced to watch himself and others fall into the abyss. His account has been mortgaged, his email reassigned, and he doesn't even have the freedom to cancel it, yet he has to maintain the persona of being "responsible," not running away or deleting his account.
This is not just a tragedy of one person's liquidation, but a collapse of an entire logic of influence. When an influencer places themselves on a pedestal but forgets that mortals can also fall, those fans who were once lifted can only sink with him in the end.
Liang Xi is not the first influencer to face liquidation in the crypto space, nor will he be the last. But every player obscured by the spotlight should learn one thing from him: don't treat the people at the gambling table as your life navigators.
