【Blockchain Rhythm】Yesterday afternoon, on-chain data monitoring captured an interesting signal: a trader shorted 70 BTC with 12x leverage around 16:47, with an entry average price of $89,508. Currently, the unrealized profit is quite good.

A closer look at this address’s historical transaction records shows that this guy is clearly a short-term trader. Recently, he has been mainly engaging with BTC perpetual contracts, switching between long and short positions frequently. This style can indeed seize opportunities during volatile market conditions, but it also tests psychological resilience and execution ability.

From the recent market rhythm, such leveraged short positions, while offering high profit potential, also carry significant risks. It’s worth noting that such large-scale operations often reflect some market participants’ short-term price trend judgments.
