According to the latest monitoring data from the on-chain data tracking platform, a well-known early Bitcoin participant's large long position account has recently encountered significant setbacks. The account currently holds a total long position of approximately $874 million, but unrealized gains have been sharply reduced to only $9.6 million—this is a stark contrast to the previous peak of over $60 million. More painfully, this account has already spent over $7.9 million on funding fees.



Specifically, the whale's position structure is quite diversified:

ETH longs are the largest, about $712 million, with an unrealized profit of $6.67 million; BTC longs are $92.62 million, with only $1.12 million in unrealized profit, indicating considerable pressure; SOL longs are $68.39 million, with unrealized gains of $1.79 million, showing relatively more stability.

From the data, it can be seen that although this large holder's position size is enormous, the current profit margins are under obvious pressure. Especially, the unrealized gains on BTC longs are nearly squeezed to the limit, reflecting the market's short-term volatility's direct impact on large positions. In this situation, every funding fee paid by the account further erodes profit margins, and the subsequent market trend will have a key influence on its position performance.
BTC-3,52%
ETH-6,81%
SOL-4,7%

$874 million left with only $9.6 million in unrealized gains, and the funding fee will eat up another $7.9 million. This is playing with fire...

Hey, 7.9 million in funding fees are almost paid out, this time it's really not playable anymore. --- A position of 8.74 billion USD now only earns 9.6 million, feels like it's about to explode at any moment. --- BTC long position with only 1.12 million in floating profit? This guy must have a really strong heart to hold on. --- Funding fees are eating into profits every day, but instead, the market is teaching a lesson in reverse, a bit tragic. --- ETH can still hold, but BTC is under tremendous pressure. --- That's why I say large positions carry the greatest risk; waves of volatility can wipe you out instantly. --- Fallen from 60 million to 9.6 million, the contrast is truly incredible. --- After holding on for so long, I still got worn down by funding fees.

Oh no, a funding fee of 7.9 million USD, that must be painful... Even the whales can't withstand this round of volatility, BTC only has a floating profit of 1.12 million? Almost liquidated. Early bagholders also have their bad days, such a tough life. This account is probably going to hold here and not escape.
