A recent CoinDesk article highlights a new trend in the crypto trading world: profiting by doing the opposite of trader James Wynn's moves. Wynn, known for his significant $1 billion bitcoin short bet on the Hyperliquid platform, has seen substantial losses. Conversely, another trader, identified as 0x2258, has reportedly earned approximately $17 million in a week by counter-trading Wynn—shorting when Wynn goes long and vice versa .
This phenomenon mirrors the "Inverse Cramer" strategy from traditional finance, where investors would take positions opposite to those recommended by CNBC's Jim Cramer. While this approach has yielded significant profits recently, it's essential to note that such strategies carry risks, and market conditions can change rapidly.
This emerging “Inverse Wynn” strategy is catching fire among crypto pros, with traders watching big players not to follow them — but to trade against them. On-chain data shows that as Wynn doubled down on his $1B BTC long, savvy traders on decentralized platforms like Hyperliquid placed short positions — raking in millions.
For Binance users, this presents a key insight: alpha isn’t just in charts or news, but also in behavioral finance and on-chain analytics. Tracking whale wallets and understanding sentiment shifts can unlock serious opportunities.
📊 Lesson? Don’t just follow — analyze and act.
📈 Crypto never sleeps, and neither should your strategy.
