This mornings Federal Reserve interest rate decision is still a good opportunity for short-term traders to open orders. The recently popular Hyperliquid 50x leveraged trading whale also participated in it and operated frantically during this period. Within 3 hours, through BTC long and short two-way transactions, 690,000 USDC was turned into 1.826 million USDC, with a profit of 164%.
Odaily Planet Daily will first take everyone to review the high-energy operation of Hyperliquid 50x leverage trading whale in the early morning.
Big Whale Brother won all four battles during the Feds interest rate decision period, with a winning rate of 100%
Before the Fed’s interest rate decision was announced: shorting BTC, making a profit of $215,000
Just after 24:00, the Hyperliquid 50x leveraged trading whale closed his previously opened MELANIA long order, earned $87,000, and reopened a BTC short order, using 690,000 USDC as margin to short 326 BTC (worth approximately $27.62 million) at 40x , with an opening price of $84,566 and a liquidation price of $85,545. Then, just before the interest rate decision was announced (around 1:48), he closed the short order at $83,927, making a profit of $215,000.

As soon as the interest rate was announced at 2 a.m. (the federal funds rate target range remained unchanged at 4.25% to 4.50%), the Hyperliquid 50x leveraged trading whale immediately opened a short position of 256 BTC (worth approximately $21.6 million) at $84,404 at 2:01 a.m., and then quickly closed the position at $83,906 six minutes later, making a profit of $250,000.
After the Fed’s interest rate decision was announced: “Long and short” double profit, two orders made a profit of $726,000

After withdrawing 1.666 million USDC, I opened a JELLY mini long order with the remaining funds
At 3 a.m., after the Hyperliquid 50x leveraged trading whale closed his short position, he withdrew 1.666 million USDC from the Hyperliquid platform and bought 815 ETH and transferred it to his current main fund storage address ( 0x51d...921 ). Then he used 46,000 USDC out of the remaining 160,000 USDC in Hyperliquid to open an ant warehouse with JELLY 3x more.

This morning, the precise operation of Big Whale Brother around the Feds interest rate announcement event can be regarded as a textbook demonstration. Not only is he at ease between long and short positions, but even the banker has to applaud. After the last time Big Whale Brother opened a long order of about 300 million US dollars in ETH with 50 times leverage, with the highest floating profit exceeding 8 million US dollars, but then he chose to withdraw the principal and most of the profits, and took the initiative to increase the liquidation price, which eventually led to a total loss of 3.45 million US dollars in HLP (for details, please see: Why did Hyperliquids giant whale self-explode and close its position? Who bears the millions of dollars in losses? ), Big Whale Brother lost 1.27 million US dollars in the double long LINK in spot and contract during this period, and the orders of BTC and ETH continued to print money. From the current market point of view, if you can refer to the strategy of Big Whale Brother for short-term trading of BTC and ETH, the probability of profit is quite considerable.
Because of this, the mysterious Big Whale Brother has almost become the focus of the market recently. His almost prophetic judgment makes his winning rate surprisingly high, as if he has some inside information. So, who is Big Whale Brother?
“Big Whale Brother” linked his personal account on the DeBank platform to the X platform and showed his true identity for the first time
Big Whale Brother links personal X account
Just yesterday afternoon, Big Whale surfaced and changed his account name on the DeBank platform to MELANIA (later renamed falling), his profile picture was Mrs. Trump (suspected of shouting orders), and he also authenticated and linked to the X account ( @qwatio ). So far, the number of followers of his personal X account has reached 11,000.

The whale hunting team failed to snipe the giant whale brother
Before the “Big Whale Brother” “revealed his true identity”, the high winning rate of BTC and ETH open orders aroused the jealousy of many “Big Whales”. Some people even posted on the X platform to recruit a “Hunting Team”, saying: If you are willing to work with this guy, send me a private message, we are building a team, and it has already grown to a good size.
Post a message to recruit Hunting Team
At 12 oclock that night, the sudden rise of BTC seemed to be the masterpiece of the whale hunting team, which instantly wiped out the floating profit of 6 million USDC on the short position of Big Whale Brother and even caused him to lose 2 million USDC, forcing him to increase the margin of 5 million USDC. However, the hunting ended with the victory of the big guys. Big Whale Brother finally made a profit of 5.101 million USD after 4 days. The team leader KOL CBB (bera era) also posted that although he lost the battle, he hadnt had so much fun for a long time.
But then, ZachXBT left a message in the comment section: In fact, this is just a cyber criminal gambling with stolen funds. He also said that more information will be released later and ruled out the possibility of the North Korean hacker organization Lazarus Group.
In response to this statement, Big Whale Brother said on the X platform that ZachXBTs accusation (Hyperliquid 50x leverage whale is actually a cyber criminal) is disappointing and unexpected, calling it baseless speculation. He hopes that ZachXBT can at least clearly point out the so-called stolen funds and mention that their wallets receive a large number of transactions from scammers. But then he deleted all the tweets authenticating the DeBank account and confronting the on-chain detective ZachXBT, and changed the account name from MELANIA to falllling.
ZachXBT: The full evidence will be released tonight at 9pm
Shortly after Big Whale linked his X account, ZachXBT, an on-chain detective, posted on the X platform that the X account of 50x leveraged whale on Hyperliquid was purchased from others and received $5,000 from a phishing customer in January 2025. He also received funds from irregular service providers such as eXch, but insisted that his money was clean. In response to the tweet from Big Whale, he said that the complete evidence will be released at 9 oclock tonight, and emphasized that he does not spread false information.

Whether Big Whale Brother was wronged or the incident really happened, we are waiting for ZachXBTs complete evidence, and Odaily Planet Daily will continue to report.
