Bitcoin Trader Turns $50K Principal into $272K Profit With 20x BTC Short and Pyramiding Hedged Grid Across 82 Trades

COINOTAG reports, citing Coinbob’s Popular Address Monitor, that the address beginning with 0x721 has grown its principal by roughly $50,000 since January, while recording gains near $272,000 through active crypto trading.

The position is a 20x leveraged BTC short with an average entry near $89,300, and an unrealized gain of approximately 44%, reflecting a favorable mark-to-market despite near-term volatility.

In the last hour, the account submitted around 100 buy orders within a $80,000–$87,000 range; it plans to close the short and flip long if price hits $86,383.

With prior sell orders in the $90,200–$94,200 band, four fills have occurred, while the strategy emphasizes a pyramiding, hedged grid that builds exposure across oscillations to capture spreads.

In a comparable setup, trader Paul Wei employs a similar framework at 2x leverage, noting a conservative stance on triggers; current long exposure sits near 3.2% unrealized loss, with assets pending.
