New wallet deposits 5M USDC to Hyperliquid to short ETH and BTC

This concentrated short positions a notable directional bet against both ETH and BTC, adding to the order flow that Hyperliquid's market will need to absorb. It signals that some large traders are comfortable expressing bearish views on majors, even amid broader market narratives. The key question is whether this is a one-off speculative move or the start of a broader positional shift among whales. Watching for additional large deposits or short builds on the platform, and how the funding rate and liquidation levels respond, will indicate if this sentiment gains traction.
