PANews reported on September 17th that according to on-chain analyst Yu Jin, a trader who lost $35.84 million long on ETH and then switched to shorting BTC has lost another $7.5 million shorting BTC and has now switched to shorting ETH again. In just one month, he has lost $43.33 million, leaving less than $1 million in his address. The trader started going long on ETH in mid-August, but the anticipated surge didn't materialize. So, seeing ETH's weakness in early September, he stopped out, losing $35.84 million, and then went short on BTC. As a result, BTC remained strong and did not fall. He finally gave up his short position after holding on for half a month and closed all his positions at a stop loss in the early morning of this morning. This resulted in another loss of $7.5 million. Now he is back in ETH, but not long but short. He sold all his BTC short positions 7 hours ago and then opened a short position in ETH: now he has opened a short position of 5,432 ETH (US$24.5 million) at $4,485, with a liquidation price of $4,594.PANews reported on September 17th that according to on-chain analyst Yu Jin, a trader who lost $35.84 million long on ETH and then switched to shorting BTC has lost another $7.5 million shorting BTC and has now switched to shorting ETH again.

Source: CryptoQuant CryptoQuant projects that altcoins, given their increased inflow activity, could face relatively higher selling pressure compared to BTC and ETH. Meanwhile, the balance of stablecoins on exchanges—a key indicator of potential buying pressure—has increased significantly. The report notes that the exchange USDT balance, around $273 million in April, grew to $379 million by August 31, marking a new yearly high. CryptoQuant interprets this surge as a reflection of…
