From youth idol to...online beggar

James Wynn was a Hyperliquid whale who made waves with many market-shocking Long/Short trades. After several verbal announcements of withdrawal but still opening positions, Wynn's account went from profit to a loss of over $100M.

It was assumed that when he ran out of money, Wynn would completely give up trading, but no. Wynn, with an account balance of only 23$ , boldly called for the community to donate USDC to continue fighting the market and promised to repay 1:1 if he wins.

Some KOLs view this case as a reckless gamble, while the founder of Wintermute believes that James Wynn's situation is merely a calculated "marketing stunt" by Hyperliquid.

Many enthusiasts enjoy following the situation, while not a few wonder whether the crypto community is wasting time on this endless drama?
