In the Chinese crypto circle, the biggest long position—how much did he actually make on ZEC?

I looked back at the orders he previously posted, and two key pieces of information can be directly inferred:

Principal: $1.3 million
Position: 14,153 ZEC

Based on ZEC’s current price of $1,660:

Profit per coin: $1,660 - $367.41 = $1,292.59
Total unrealized profit: 14,153 × $1,292.59 ≈ $18.29 million

With $1.3 million in principal, unrealized profit is $18.29 million—returns over 14x.

What does $18 million really mean?

No fluff—let’s do the most conservative calculation.

If you put this money into fixed-income investments and earn 3% annualized, the yearly interest would be about $540,000.

Spread that across each month: doing nothing at all, net income is about $45,000 per month—roughly RMB 300,000.

Note: this is the most conservative way of calculating. He obviously wouldn’t go for fixed income. I’m using this example just to help you feel the weight of $18 million.

One month of interest is enough for an average person to work for several years.
