The post Machi Big Brother Liquidated on 25X ETH Leverage: $29M in Losses appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Machi Big Brother was completely liquidated on a 25x ETH long, realizing an estimated $29M loss. Binance recorded $33.3 billion in inflows over 30 days, the highest since last November. Major assets remain well below peaks, with crypto and tech stocks facing steep drawdowns. Prominent trader Machi Big Brother (@machibigbrother on X) faced full liquidation on a 25x leveraged long position in Ethereum, resulting in an estimated $29 million loss, according to OnchainLens.
