According to Coinglass data cited by ChainCatcher, whale positions on Hyperliquid currently total $4.658 billion. Long positions stand at $2.321 billion, representing 49.83% of the total, while short positions amount to $2.337 billion, or 50.17%. That leaves aggregate long and short exposure almost exactly in balance. In dollar terms, long positions are carrying an unrealized loss of $78.7929 million, while short positions show an unrealized gain of $9.3976 million. One whale address, 0x0ddf..02, is running a 3x full-margin short on ETH at a price of $1,700.06. That trade is currently showing an unrealized loss of $11.2367 million. These figures are drawn from Coinglass and were relayed by ChainCatcher. The data offers a snapshot of whale positioning on Hyperliquid, with the biggest divergence appearing inside the ETH trade: the single whale short is losing money even as the broader short side of the platform's whale book is in positive territory.
