A whale address beginning with 0x890 was liquidated during SKHX’s sharp rebound on July 31, in what Hyperinsight said was the largest single liquidation across the market at the time. The forced closure wiped out 4,892.6 SKHX short contracts, with execution prices ranging from $1,126 to $1,140 and an estimated liquidation price of about $1,133.6. The total liquidation value reached $5.547 million, while the position posted an estimated loss of roughly $866,000. At the time of liquidation, SKHX’s mark price had already climbed to $1,146.5. As of publication, the token was trading at $1,152.5, up 23.4% on the day. Its 24-hour trading volume stood at about $1.558 billion, and open interest was roughly $451 million. The trader did not step away after the wipeout. Just 17 seconds after the original short position was cleared, the same address opened a new SKHX short. The address now holds 770 SKHX short contracts on 10x isolated margin, with a position value of about $887,000, an average entry of $1,147.8, an unrealized loss of around $3,337, and a liquidation price of $1,249.99.
