However, some traders said Tate was simply “gambling.”
“They’re 3-4 figure trades, this is candy money for him,” one user wrote. “How is this newsworthy? He’s probably just having fun gambling.”
Mounting Losses Top $700,000
Blockchain analytics platform Arkham reported earlier this week that Tate has lost over $727,000 he deposited into Hyperliquid, with zero withdrawals recorded.
He also earned $75,000 in referral rewards from traders using his link, all of which he reportedly lost through trading.
Tate repeatedly opened high-leverage perpetual futures positions, often with little evidence of hedging.
Several trades involved large long positions exceeding $150,000 in notional exposure.
Bitcoin Slides to Multi-Month Low
Bitcoin’s price drop played a central role in Tate’s rapid liquidations.
On Friday, Bitcoin fell to $80,706, its lowest level since April 21 and more than 35% below its all-time high.
According to Valdrin Tahiri, analyst at CCN, the latest weekly close below the 50-week moving average marks a historic breakdown that has preceded every primary Bitcoin bear market.
“If Bitcoin follows its historical cycle behavior, the next major bull phase is unlikely to begin until 2026, meaning the market may already be walking into its next extended bear period,” Tahiri said.
Adding: “For now, every major indicator points the same direction. That is why Bitcoin is going down and why risk remains elevated until the price reclaims critical support.”
