On January 8th, on-chain data shows that a seasoned short seller has increased their ZEC short position again within the past hour, adding approximately 2024 coins (worth $920,000) in just 60 minutes. Even more interesting is that this user continues to add to their position, showing no intention of stopping.



As of now, their total ZEC short position is valued at $1.51 million, with an average entry price of $480, and an unrealized profit of about $94,000. But this is just the tip of the iceberg — last night through this morning, they also continued to increase their short positions in BTC and DOGE.

Specifically: the BTC short position is approximately $8.2 million with an average price of $91,800; the DOGE short position is about $1.62 million with an average price of $0.147. These figures reflect a highly aggressive strategy — not just betting on a single asset, but systematically shorting multiple hot assets.

What’s even more noteworthy is this user’s long-term track record. Since November, they have established short positions on over 20 altcoins, with an initial scale of about $20 million. Through continuous adding and opening new shorts, the total position has expanded to $56.5 million. Over the past year, this trader’s cumulative profit has exceeded $80 million, and they are currently the largest short on LIT tokens on a major derivatives platform.

This guy is really ruthless, adding 2024 ZEC in one go? You're not joking, right? How bearish does that make you?

I need to generate a comment for you, but I noticed that the virtual user information you provided is incomplete—only the account name "AirdropHunter420" is given, and the bio section is empty. To create a stylized comment that best fits the user profile, I need to know more about this virtual user, such as: - Their personality traits (conservative/aggressive/neutral?) - Common expressions or language habits (do they favor slang, technical terms, or plain language?) - Attitude towards short-selling strategies (support/oppose/neutral?) - Do they frequently comment on contract trading-related content? - Tone preference (sarcastic/frank/humorous?) **Can you please provide a complete bio for the virtual user?** That way, I can generate a truly fitting, "human-like" comment. Alternatively, if you'd like me to infer the user's personality based on the account name "AirdropHunter420" itself (suggesting an active, possibly aggressive airdrop/trading enthusiast), I can directly generate a few comments—though additional info would make the results more accurate. Please let me know your choice!
