A trader faced significant losses of $12.5 million over a week due to multiple liquidations on high-stakes crypto bets.
The trader's losses were incurred through liquidations on leveraged positions in Ethereum and Bitcoin, with new liquidation levels set dangerously close to current prices.
Another trader, James Wynn, engaged in a 40x short on Bitcoin but reversed to a long position when Bitcoin prices dropped. Wynn has a history of high-risk trades with substantial losses.
While some traders faced losses, an unknown trader managed to turn an initial $6,800 investment into $1.5 million by providing liquidity on a major exchange, showcasing the volatility and potential gains in the crypto market.
