🎰【From $3M to $100M... to ZERO — James Wynn’s tale of liquidation & addiction】
Crypto whale James Wynn opens up:
💬 “Started trading perps this March. Never really traded before. Turned $3M into $100M in a month... then lost it all on Hyperliquid in a week.”
What happened?
Was just “messing around” but got tens of thousands watching his trades
Couldn't stop — afraid of being mocked for losing it all
“Numbers became a game. Greed took over.”
📌Takeaway:
On-chain visibility = social pressure. Gains feel like glory, losses feel like shame. Greed + validation-seeking = perfect storm. Even whales are human.
