The crypto community is planning a "whale hunting operation" against the "Hyperliquid 50x leverage whale"

According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi's monitoring, a "whale hunting operation" against the "Hyperliquid 50x leverage whale" has begun.

Twitter user @Cbb0fe posted a tweet 11 hours ago to recruit a "whale hunting team," and then Tron founder Justin Sun (@justinsuntron) joined the operation.

The sudden surge of BTC at midnight last night seems to be the work of this whale hunting team, causing the 6 million floating profit of the 50x whale to be wiped out instantly, even resulting in a loss of 2 million, forcing him to increase his margin by 5 million USDC.
