Three hours ago, wallet 0x9018960618eFF55F5852e345B7Cb5661fd2928e1 resurfaced on Hyperliquid with a bold move: depositing $4.22 million USDC before launching into a $149 million 40x BTC short (entry $108,855) and a $7.62 million 20x XRP short. For now, those trades sit at a combined floating loss of $1.07 million.
What makes this more intriguing is the trail of connections tying the account back to the infamous “insider bro”:
Its margin source 0xa31981bA7aCa4c3D1E3594FB5BFE295E1f611314 traces ETH back to 0x916...4eD32, a known insider bro address.
The same margin source shares a Roobet deposit address with insider bro.
It also shows high-frequency interaction with ChangeNOW, mirroring his trading habits.
And, of course, the reckless high-leverage, oversized positions feel all too familiar.
So where did the $4.22 million margin suddenly come from? After supposedly blowing up, bro managed a comeback. Starting with 841,000 USDC on 09.22, he shorted BTC and ETH, went long on XPL, and in just a week pulled in $3.785 million.
Now, armed with fresh profits, the insider has returned to the arena ; doubling down with leverage and daring the market once again.
