💥 The $1.25B Bet That Backfired
James Wynn—Hyperliquid’s most daring trader—just got fully liquidated after a wild month of high-stakes gambling.
Started with a $1.25B Bitcoin long 🚀
Lost $37M when $BTC crashed 📉
Pivoted to $PEPE , $ETH , even FARTCOIN 🤡
Ended with just $23 left 💸
🎢 The Rollercoaster Ride
At one point, Wynn was sitting on $85M in unrealized gains—but greed kept him in the game. Then:
🔥 BTC drop = $37M gone
🔥 Memecoin trades = Wiped again
🔥 Final balance: A sad $23
💬 Wynn’s Defiant Response
> "I’ll run it back. I like playing the game."
But was it strategy or madness? 🤔
📌 3 Brutal Lessons for Traders
