Crypto whale activity in the crypto derivatives market shot up dramatically in a two-hour period, with three big traders going long on Bitcoin and Ethereum in high leverage on the Hyperliquid platform. 

Based on on-chain tracker Lookonchain, the synchronized increase in long exposure is an indication of growing optimism in a future bullish run in the overall crypto market. The size of the trades, coupled with the aggressive leverage use, immediately attracted attention throughout the trading fraternity.

Whale 0x0ddf Opens Dual Leveraged Longs on BTC and ETH

Two important positions were initiated by the first crypto whale, which was address 0x0ddf. The trader initiated a 3x long on 311.9 BTC which is equal to $27.14 million, and a 2x long on 5,176 ETH, equivalent to $15.15 million. The total exposure is more than 42 million dollars and 0x0ddf is the biggest player of this bullish wave.

Whole market analysts observed that the moderate leverage levels of the whale indicated that there was a high conviction position but with low liquidation risk.

Whale 0x2c26 Takes a 20x Long on 346 BTC Worth $30 Million

The second crypto whale, wallet 0x2c26, opened a 20x long on 346 BTC, worth about 30 million dollars. On platform, position is reported as around $86,997 with 346.05 Bitcoin in exposure. The dashboard of the whale shows a total of 4.42 million dollars in account value which is basically composed of perpetual futures. 

The trade is currently indicated to be experiencing a small unrealized loss at the liquidation price which is recorded to be close to $75,115 indicating the risk level at 20x leverage. The boldest directional bet by the three traders is that of this crypto wallet.

Whale 0x535e Opens 25x Long on 7,000 ETH

Another whale, address 0x535e, made one of the highest leveraged longs of the week, with a 25x long of 7,000 ETH, which was worth 20.49 million. The dashboard of Hyperliquid shows that the price of entry is approximately 2,893 and the position already indicated a profit of more than 239,000 unrealized due to the opening. 

The liquidation threshold is near to $2733, which means that there is very low tolerance of downside as leverage is high. The total value of the account is recorded at $1.74 million, which is invested in the single Ethereum perpetual position.

Crypto Market Interprets Whale Activity as a Strong Bullish Signal

Crypto traders in X and Telegram responded swiftly to the whale long exposure increase. Other commentators suspect that the coordinated timing is an indication of collective feeling or insider trading of impending macro or market driving forces. Some warn that high-leverage positions are more volatile and may enhance crypto market fluctuations in case the prices are moving against the whales.

At present, the aggressive stance of these three giant wallets implies the increasing confidence in a further rise in the market, and thus, Hyperliquid becomes the epicenter of the whale-based market activity this week.

Shocking OpenVPP Partnership Claim Draws Urgent Scrutiny

Shocking OpenVPP Partnership Claim Draws Urgent Scrutiny

The post Shocking OpenVPP Partnership Claim Draws Urgent Scrutiny appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The cryptocurrency world is buzzing with a recent controversy surrounding a bold OpenVPP partnership claim. This week, OpenVPP (OVPP) announced what it presented as a significant collaboration with the U.S. government in the innovative field of energy tokenization. However, this claim quickly drew the sharp eye of on-chain analyst ZachXBT, who highlighted a swift and official rebuttal that has sent ripples through the digital asset community. What Sparked the OpenVPP Partnership Claim Controversy? The core of the issue revolves around OpenVPP’s assertion of a U.S. government partnership. This kind of collaboration would typically be a monumental endorsement for any private cryptocurrency project, especially given the current regulatory climate. Such a partnership could signify a new era of mainstream adoption and legitimacy for energy tokenization initiatives. OpenVPP initially claimed cooperation with the U.S. government. This alleged partnership was said to be in the domain of energy tokenization. The announcement generated considerable interest and discussion online. ZachXBT, known for his diligent on-chain investigations, was quick to flag the development. He brought attention to the fact that U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Commissioner Hester Peirce had directly addressed the OpenVPP partnership claim. Her response, delivered within hours, was unequivocal and starkly contradicted OpenVPP’s narrative. How Did Regulatory Authorities Respond to the OpenVPP Partnership Claim? Commissioner Hester Peirce’s statement was a crucial turning point in this unfolding story. She clearly stated that the SEC, as an agency, does not engage in partnerships with private cryptocurrency projects. This response effectively dismantled the credibility of OpenVPP’s initial announcement regarding their supposed government collaboration. Peirce’s swift clarification underscores a fundamental principle of regulatory bodies: maintaining impartiality and avoiding endorsements of private entities. Her statement serves as a vital reminder to the crypto community about the official stance of government agencies concerning private ventures. Moreover, ZachXBT’s analysis…

A Netflix ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Short Film Has Been Rated For Release

A Netflix ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Short Film Has Been Rated For Release

The post A Netflix ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Short Film Has Been Rated For Release appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. KPop Demon Hunters Netflix Everyone has wondered what may be the next step for KPop Demon Hunters as an IP, given its record-breaking success on Netflix. Now, the answer may be something exactly no one predicted. According to a new filing with the MPA, something called Debut: A KPop Demon Hunters Story has been rated PG by the ratings body. It’s listed alongside some other films, and this is obviously something that has not been publicly announced. A short film could be well, very short, a few minutes, and likely no more than ten. Even that might be pushing it. Using say, Pixar shorts as a reference, most are between 4 and 8 minutes. The original movie is an hour and 36 minutes. The “Debut” in the title indicates some sort of flashback, perhaps to when HUNTR/X first arrived on the scene before they blew up. Previously, director Maggie Kang has commented about how there were more backstory components that were supposed to be in the film that were cut, but hinted those could be explored in a sequel. But perhaps some may be put into a short here. I very much doubt those scenes were fully produced and simply cut, but perhaps they were finished up for this short film here. When would Debut: KPop Demon Hunters theoretically arrive? I’m not sure the other films on the list are much help. Dead of Winter is out in less than two weeks. Mother Mary does not have a release date. Ne Zha 2 came out earlier this year. I’ve only seen news stories saying The Perfect Gamble was supposed to come out in Q1 2025, but I’ve seen no evidence that it actually has.

Curve Finance votes on revenue-sharing model for CRV holders

Curve Finance votes on revenue-sharing model for CRV holders

The post Curve Finance votes on revenue-sharing model for CRV holders appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Curve Finance has proposed a new protocol called Yield Basis that would share revenue directly with CRV holders, marking a shift from one-off incentives to sustainable income. Summary Curve Finance has put forward a revenue-sharing protocol to give CRV holders sustainable income beyond emissions and fees. The plan would mint $60M in crvUSD to seed three Bitcoin liquidity pools (WBTC, cbBTC, tBTC), with 35–65% of revenue distributed to veCRV stakers. The DAO vote runs from up to Sept. 24, with the proposal seen as a major step to strengthen CRV tokenomics after past liquidity and governance challenges. Curve Finance founder Michael Egorov has introduced a proposal to give CRV token holders a more direct way to earn income, launching a system called Yield Basis that aims to turn the governance token into a sustainable, yield-bearing asset.  The proposal has been published on the Curve DAO (CRV) governance forum, with voting open until Sept. 24. A new model for CRV rewards Yield Basis is designed to distribute transparent and consistent returns to CRV holders who lock their tokens for veCRV governance rights. Unlike past incentive programs, which relied heavily on airdrops and emissions, the protocol channels income from Bitcoin-focused liquidity pools directly back to token holders. To start, Curve would mint $60 million worth of crvUSD, its over-collateralized stablecoin, with proceeds allocated across three pools — WBTC, cbBTC, and tBTC — each capped at $10 million. 25% of Yield Basis tokens would be reserved for the Curve ecosystem, and between 35% and 65% of Yield Basis’s revenue would be given to veCRV holders. By emphasizing Bitcoin (BTC) liquidity and offering yields without the short-term loss risks associated with automated market makers, the protocol hopes to draw in professional traders and institutions. Context and potential impact on Curve Finance The proposal comes as Curve continues to modify…
