$BTC A WHALE JUST OPENED A $98.3M BITCOIN LONG
The position reportedly uses 40× leverage, with liquidation around $80,785.
At 40× leverage, roughly $2.46 million of margin controls a $98.3 million position.
That creates enormous exposure from relatively little posted capital.
The dangerous part is the distance to liquidation.
If BTC falls toward $80,785, the position can be forced to close, potentially locking in losses for the trader and adding selling pressure during a decline.
Leverage can make a position look huge without requiring equally large upfront capital.
Big positions can carry very small cushions.
