【Blockchain Rhythms】 Monitoring data shows that at 13:42 on January 12, the whale address (0x94d37), which previously held the largest short position in BTC on a well-known derivatives platform, completed a kPEPE long position liquidation, earning a profit of $9,335 in a single trade. Currently, the unrealized profit of this account has reached $4.6 million.

The trading activity of this address has attracted much attention. During the same period when a leading exchange was continuously accumulating BTC, it made large-scale short positions in BTC, ETH, and other mainstream cryptocurrencies. This address once became the largest BTC short seller on the platform with a massive holding of $120 million. From aggressive shorting at that time to gradually adjusting its positions now, the strategic changes of this whale are worth noting.

This whale really knows how to pick the timing. When the bears are at their strongest, it doesn't sell off. Now it's turning around and going long—kind of interesting.

Bro, this whale really knows how to pick the right moment. From 120 million short players to now gradually adjusting, does it look like they're backing down or have they really seen something?

Whales closing positions, just close them. The key is what happens next. This guy has changed his stance from a dead bear to something else; we need to keep an eye on it.

The big whale closed their short position on kPEPE and made over 9,000. Has this guy's mindset changed now... Previously, with a 120 million short position, they were so aggressive, and now they are going long?

The whales are starting to reduce their holdings. Are they backing down or is this some kind of trick?

Is this whale turning around? The previously fierce short sellers are now starting to close their positions. This is getting interesting.

The big whale is really starting to back down slowly, from a $120 million short position to gradually closing it now. The pace of change is very obvious.

Little Whale has changed its stance, from bearish to bullish... Is this a signal in itself?
