Bitcoin Whale Faces Liquidation Woes as Speculation Grows They May Have Inside Information About Donald Trump

Mar 17, 2025 at 04:12 pm

A Bitcoin whale is facing potential liquidation after placing a high-stakes $380 million short position. Speculation is growing that this investor may have inside information about the US President Donald Trump.

A Bitcoin whale is facing potential liquidation after placing a high-stakes $380 million short position. Speculation is growing that this investor may have inside information about US President Donald Trump.

This theory has sparked a reaction among traders, who are reportedly working together to push BTC price high enough to trigger the liquidation, turning this into a major crypto showdown.

Bitcoin Whale Faces Liquidation Woes

According to market expert Gordon, the whale has doubled down on a massive Bitcoin short. Initially, the investor placed a 40x leverage bet, which was reported to be worth $380 million. However, they later added to the position, and their new liquidation price is at $86,593.

“There seems to be a group of whales trying to pump BTC to liquidate him. If u guys are willing to hunt this dude with size drop a DM setting up a team rn and already got good size. Come on fomo into the rally if u guys want to help hunt fell asleep early,” stated liquidity provider CBB.

If the speculation holds true, it raises questions about whether political developments could influence Bitcoin’s future price movements. Trump’s stance on cryptocurrency has shifted over time, making any connection between him and the whale’s move a subject of intense debate.

Besides, the announcement of the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve in the US has further fueled speculations in the market.

Liquidity Providers Enter the Game

In a striking development, liquidity provider CBB also weighed in on the unfolding drama. In a recent X post, the account stated:

“If you are willing to hunt this dude with size, drop a DM, setting up a team right now and already got good size.”

Shortly after, CBB followed up with a cryptic message: “The hunt has begun.” This statement suggests a coordinated effort is now underway to force Bitcoin’s price up and trigger the whale’s liquidation. If successful, it could lead to a sudden price surge and increased market volatility.

BTC price today was down around 1% and exchanged hands at $83K, while its one-day volume rocketed 93% to $24 billion. The crypto has touched a 24-hour high and low of $85,051.60 and $82,017.90, respectively. Despite the current loss, the flagship crypto has recorded gains of more than 1% in the last seven days.

However, in another gloomy prediction, one analyst believes that BTC price might crash to $20K if the US stock market enters a “BEAR MARKET”, which has further escalated tensions. Having said that, investors are keeping close track of the latest BTC movements, with soaring speculations over potential insider trading in the market.
