The trader’s long positions contrasted with broader market conditions on Nov. 5. CoinGlass data showed 438,063 traders were liquidated in the previous 24 hours, with total liquidations reaching $1.73 billion. Long positions accounted for $1.32 billion of the liquidations, while short positions represented $404.17 million.

The CNN Fear & Greed Index stood at 21, indicating extreme fear in traditional markets. The reading below 25 typically reflects heightened risk aversion among investors. Other entities have engaged in Bitcoin accumulation activity during the same period.

The largest single liquidation in the 24-hour period occurred on Hyperliquid, the same exchange where the trader holds positions. A $26.06 million ETH order was liquidated, according to CoinGlass. Separate Ethereum whale accumulation was reported by other tracking services during the dip.
