Machi Big Brother, a prominent cryptocurrency trader, has been liquidated seven times over the past two days while maintaining highly leveraged positions, underscoring the extreme risk profile of the account that has faced more than 300 liquidations historically.
The trader has opened a new long position on Ethereum (ETH) using 25x leverage with a notional value of $4.5 million. The position carries a liquidation price of $1,798, meaning the trader would face forced closure if ETH declines to that level—a roughly 25% drawdown from current price levels depending on entry point timing.
The repeated liquidations highlight the precarious mechanics of perpetual futures trading, where traders borrowing capital at extreme leverage ratios face instantaneous position closures if collateral falls below maintenance thresholds. Machi Big Brother's documented history of over 300 liquidations suggests a consistent pattern of overleveraged directional bets, whether the trader is attempting to recover previous losses or maintaining a systematic high-risk strategy.
