BTC and ETH shorts partially liquidated: exposure remains open

An October 21 monitoring report says a whale had 55.19 BTC and 153.19 ETH of short exposure forcibly covered over two hours, each representing 20% of the corresponding position before liquidation. The combined liquidation trades were worth about $4.9912 million, with approximately $46,500 in realized trading losses and another $1,398 in fees.

The account reportedly retained roughly $19.8846 million of short exposure afterward. Liquidated notional is not the same as money lost, and partial liquidation does not mean the entire position is closed. The useful follow-up is whether further exposure is reduced or collateral changes; these reported figures should not be treated as live liquidation levels.
