Whale closes short BTC position after ~$10M realized loss

A whale known as ‘先定10个大目标’ closed their short BTC position after suffering about $10 million in realized losses. The trader had entered shorts near $74,000-$76,000, reduced most of the position as price spiked to $79,500, and eventually covered the rest, citing discipline and a desire to avoid missing a potential rally to $80,000-$100,000.

The notable part is the exit rationale: a large short covering not on a stop-loss trigger but on the fear of missing a rally. That is capitulation-style positioning, and it removes a seller from the book at a moment when the trader's own stated upside scenario sits just above the market. Whether other large shorts follow the same logic, or treat the loss as a signal to re-establish lower, is the open question for near-term flow.
