1/ Who the hell is James Wynn?
James Wynn is a pseudonymous crypto whale
He's the most aggressive trader alive — known for swinging 9-figure positions on platforms like Hyperliquid
He’s not just a trader l He’s a market mover
2/ From $210 to $87M
In late 2022, Wynn started with just $210
By mid-2025, he'd made over $87M — mostly from high-leverage altcoin plays and meme tokens
No VC l No insider info l Just pure, unhinged execution
3/ The $PEPE flip that made him a god
Wynn aped into $7K worth of $PEPE early, when it was under a $600K market cap
He sold for $25M — and made memecoin history
This is the trade that made everyone take him seriously
4/ The $1.25B Bitcoin long (gone wrong)
In May 2025, he went long on BTC with $1.25B, using 40x leverage
(he keeps adding money to position)
Entry: $108,916
Liquidation: $105,179
Trump tweet nuked BTC l He lost $13.4M in minutes — and then tweeted a meme about it
5/ Wynn's weapon: Max leverage
Wynn doesn’t play it safe
He uses 10x–40x leverage, often risking entire accounts
His positions can range from $100M to over $1B
He bets BIG and moves fast
6/ Wynn trades publicly
He broadcasts his positions on-chain and sometimes on Twitter
It’s a genius move:
➤ Builds hype
➤ Pumps his bags
➤ Creates copycat frenzies
He’s not just trading l He’s engineering FOMO
7/ NVIDIA Saves Wynn from Immediate Liquidation
Yesterday, Nvidia surpassed expectations by reporting $44.1 billion in revenue for the quarter, saving James Wynn's $BTC position
Liquidation price was: $106,440
8/ His edge? Psychology + speed
Wynn isn’t a chart nerd
He watches market psychology, news cycles, liquidity, and sentiment
He gets in early, exits fast, and uses social media as a weapon
9/ Wynn’s win streaks and wipeouts
He’s made $50M+ in a week — and lost $10M+ in a day
He’s been liquidated over a dozen times, sometimes intentionally to reset
Wynn plays the game like a casino boss, not a cautious investor
10/ His recent obsession: Meme tokens
After his BTC wipeout, Wynn doubled down on meme coins:
- $kPEPE
- $TRUMP
- $GIGA
- #FARTCOIN
Even obscure 10-minute rugs — for fun
He turned $19K into $1.2M in a single weekend on $TRUMP
11/ What can YOU learn from Wynn?
➤ Use sentiment like a signal
➤ Volatility is opportunity
➤ Public trades are influence tools
➤ Big plays = big risks
➤ Don't copy unless you're ready to lose everything
He’s an edge case l Not a blueprint
12/ Final thought
James Wynn goes against the crowd
He creates his own crowd and leads it
He shows that in crypto, madness — if timed perfectly — can make you a legend
