BlockBeats reported on August 12 that, according to the latest monitoring data from Ember, trade.xyz's largest short position on Long Xin Technology has now been held for half a month. During that same stretch, Long Xin Technology's share price has moved steadily higher rather than falling, which is the opposite of what a short seller would want to see.

CXMT's Largest Short Whale Faces $2.26M Floating Loss, $3.08M in Funding Fees

On August 10, on-chain analyst Ai Yi revealed that the largest CXMT short whale has paid $3.078 million in cumulative funding fees and is currently facing a floating loss of about $2.255 million. The position consists of roughly $21.12 million in 1x leveraged CXMT shorts, with an entry price of approximately $6.50. As CXMT’s price advanced to $7.28, the unrealized loss widened. According to Ai Yi, this position previously posted more than $40 million in margin, so the liquidation price of $15.466 remains a distant trigger. However, the ongoing accumulation of funding costs is steadily eating into the trader's equity. Market observers speculate that the trader may still be betting on a significant price correction in CXMT to offset the current losses and achieve profitability. The data highlights the pressure on heavily levered short positions as funding expenses compound alongside adverse price movement.
