The post Seasoned Crypto Trader Lost $35 Million in Two Weeks – Here’s How! appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News A seasoned crypto trader known as AguilaTrades has made headlines for all the wrong reasons.

So, what exactly went wrong? And what can other traders learn from his mistakes? From $39M to $4M – The Shocking Slide It all began on June 8, when AguilaTrades created a new wallet and moved $39.18 million worth of USDC from Bybit to Hyperliquid, a trading platform used for perpetual BTC contracts. His strategy was bold: he went long on Bitcoin, betting that the price would keep rising. How did AguilaTrades( @AguilaTrades ) lose over $35M in just 2 weeks? 1/ Let's take a closer look at his trades — and see what lessons we can learn. https://t.co/LeSb2QO0PX pic.twitter.com/xt7nGnZJsu — Lookonchain (@lookonchain) June 23, 2025 Initially, things looked good. On June 9, he opened a large long position on Bitcoin as the price started climbing. His unrealized profits soon reached a peak of $5.76 million. But instead of locking in those gains, he held on, waiting for more. That wait cost him dearly. Ignoring the Signs – And the Losses Pile Up As geopolitical tensions rose due to the Israel-Iran conflict , the price of Bitcoin dropped sharply. Aguila was forced to close his long position, this time with a $12.47 million loss. But he didn’t stop there. Just six days later, on June 15, he went long again. Once more, BTC climbed, and his gains hit $10 million. And once again, he didn’t sell. But, when the market turned, his profits vanished, and he walked away with another $2.95 million in losses. Then came June 20. Another long position. Another rally. Another chance to cash out, this time with $3.2 million in profits. But he didn’t take it. As Bitcoin dropped again , his losses deepened to a painful $17 million. Change in Strategy—But Too Late After three failed long trades, he finally flipped his strategy and went short, betting that Bitcoin would drop. Unfortunately, Bitcoin bounced, and his losses added another $2.33 million. In just two weeks, AguilaTrades saw its account shrink from $39 million to just $4 million, a loss of over $35 million.
