🚨 New setback for Machi Big Brother—Is the end nearing for the biggest whale?
The famous whale Machi Big Brother has suffered another painful blow in the derivatives market, where he was liquidated (Liquidation) for $341,000 while trading Ethereum (ETH). This loss is only a drop in the ocean of his ongoing bleeding, as data indicates that his total losses on the Hyperliquid platform alone have exceeded the $80.43 million mark since September 2025
To cover his open positions and secure margin, Machi began liquidating his rare assets and putting parts of his famous Bored Ape Yacht Club collection up for sale, reflecting the true scale of the financial pressure he is facing.
The available data confirms this sharp decline: complex transfer network activity and flows from his cash holdings across decentralized platforms are visible, while an Arkham platform report shows that the total value accounted for his current wallet assets has eroded dramatically to very low levels (around just $71,000 of the remaining coins). This collapse is attributed to his high-risk trading strategy, using leverage as high as 25x on the ETH-USDC pair, as illustrated by the chart—where successive incorrect boosts pushed the liquidation price to about $1,543.
This situation raises a big question in the crypto community: Will one of the largest Web3 whales be running out of financial breath and nearing complete bankruptcy?
