The current position includes 36,281 ETH worth over $106 million, 552 BTC worth around $48 million, and 114,677 SOL worth approximately $14 million.
These aggressive short positions come as crypto prices are already under pressure. Bitcoin fell to $87,000 on Monday evening, while Ethereum traded below $3,000 and Solana slipped under $123, according to CoinGecko.
