Last year, Brother Maji, who aggressively went long but suffered a loss of over 10 million USD, achieved a long-awaited victory in early 2026. Now, is he planning to add to his position while riding the momentum?
(Background recap: Brother Maji’s previous long positions were frustrated again, Bitcoin OG whale floated a loss of 56 million USD)
(Additional background: In November, Brother Maji was liquidated 71 times by Hyperliquid, earning the title “Liquidation King”! Aster’s customer grab: Maji mode to open next week)
The bull didn’t return, but well-known trader Brother Maji made a profit with the rebound in early 2026! Today, he closed a 40x leveraged Bitcoin (BTC) long position and realized about 1.53 million USD profit. He then quickly shifted funds to Ethereum (ETH) and Hyperliquid ecosystem’s HYPE token, continuing to go long while riding the wave.
40x BTC position fully closed
According to Hyperliquid data monitoring, Huang Licheng completed a reversal within this week with high leverage, earning a total of 1.53 million USD. He chose to take profits when Bitcoin was in a high-range consolidation. After securing the profit, he established a 25x leveraged long position of about 7,100 ETH, with an average cost of approximately 2,987 USD. At this leverage, a price drop of about 4% would trigger liquidation, posing significant risk.
Previously, his position had floating losses ranging from 230,000 to 375,000 USD, but Brother Maji did not reduce his position. Besides Ethereum, he also opened a 10x leveraged position on Hyperliquid ecosystem token HYPE and gradually increased to 25,888.88 tokens, with an average cost of about 24.5 USD.
Although HYPE faces unlocking sell pressure, recent prices have only fluctuated between 24.7 and 26.2 USD. Huang Licheng chose to go against the trend, aiming to capture potential excess returns from the protocol.
