The largest long whale for HYPE, Hyperliquid early contributor Loracle, closed all of his BTC and ETH short positions established the previous day within the past 6 hours. The total size of these short positions is approximately $56 million, with about $2.43 million in profit from BTC shorts and approximately $3.6 million from ETH shorts, pushing his total weekly profit to $16.6 million.
