Community Spotlights: Shorters Make a Comeback
With markets trending downward, November’s alpha centered on resilient shorters who turned their portfolios around. Copin kept our Twitter and Telegram alive with these juicy on-chain gems, educating the community on conviction and timing.
The $100M Turnaround (-$20M to +$114M): A Hyperliquid wallet (believed to be linked to Fasanara Capital) was down $20M in September. Instead of folding, they executed strategic shorts that flipped their PnL to +$96M in realized profit, sitting at +$114M overall by month’s end. A masterclass in conviction. 👉 Read the thread
The $ZEC Comeback King: Three weeks ago, this trader was deep in the red with -$8.2M losses. They nailed a bottom-fishing $27M long on $ZEC (5x leverage) at ~$419. The result? A $4.2M profit and a nearly 200% ROI that wiped out all prior losses. 👉 See the details
These are stories that inspired CT discussions, showcasing how Copin’s tools help spot and learn from such high-conviction plays.
