🐋 XPL whale is up a massive $2.42M—hold or take profits?
A short position held by the address 0x5b5d…c060 has the community buzzing! With a notional size of around $5.20M and roughly 3x leverage, this whale is currently sitting on about $2.42M in unrealized profit. Pretty impressive, right?
What’s notable is that the position’s liquidation price (the price at which it would be automatically closed if the market moves against it) is quite far away, at around $2.1722. That means the price would need to rise nearly 2885.3% from its current level (about $0.0728) before the position is at risk. With a margin (actual collateral) of only around $1.73M, the pressure doesn’t seem too significant for now.
Looking at these “massive” profits, I can’t help wondering whether the whale will keep holding out for more or take profits early. There’ll certainly be pressure to take profits, but with liquidation so far away, they can afford to be more patient.
