Hyperliquid Whale James Wynn Fully Liquidated After $16.8B in Trading Volume

  • Trader James Wynn was fully liquidated in 2025 after his $1.25 billion BTC long position unraveled on Hyperliquid.
  • His losses started when Bitcoin's value fell under the $105,000 mark during a period of increasing geopolitical tensions, leading to significant financial damage.
  • Wynn experienced a $37 million loss from a single trade and saw unrealized gains peak at $85 million before liquidation.
  • An account linked to Wynn tweeted, "I'll run it back, I always do," and admitted taking a "large and calculated bet at making billions."
  • This event highlights the risks of high-leverage crypto trading and fuels speculation on Wynn's continued strategic positioning for future opportunities.
