Whale's 90 BTC short position was liquidated, isolation margin mode raises concerns over risk control

【Blockchain Rhythm】On-chain monitoring data shows that a leading whale address completed a large-scale BTC short position closure on the afternoon of January 22 at 16:43—selling 90.23 BTC in one go. However, this transaction did not realize the expected profit and instead resulted in a loss of $12,300. After closing the position, the address currently holds no new positions and is in a wait-and-see mode.

It is worth noting that the whale’s historical trading records show a long-term use of isolated margin trading. While the isolated mode can reduce the risk of liquidation on a single trade, its frequent short-term operations and the recent loss indicate that this address exhibits a typical high-risk, high-frequency trading style. Even with relatively cautious risk control measures, market volatility can still directly eat into some of the profits.
