There's an interesting phenomenon—an old-school whale has made a move on ZEC again today. This guy's resume is quite clear: seven short positions on ZEC, never long, with a total loss of $508,000. You have to wonder how persistent he must be.

Today's new move is also following the usual pattern. Double leverage, 5,000 ZEC, worth $2.01 million. The average entry price is $499.32 per ZEC, and he's already made a profit of $490,000 on paper. It looks like he’s betting right this time.

But that's the problem—after seven lessons, those lessons are still there. Can he turn the tide this time? Or is this another shattered dream? The market always loves to tell stories, and whales keep testing these stories over and over. The road for ZEC is still long, and observing the movements of large holdings like this often reveals some insights.

ZEC-11,14%

This guy really has incredible resilience. He got slapped in the face seven times and still dared to come for the eighth, his persistence deserves a perfect score.

This whale is really persistent. Seven losses and still daring to continue playing—how strong must their mindset be... But this time, making 490,000 is real, but I still don't dare to follow, feeling like the next time I'll get liquidated again.

honestly this whale's got the most predictable playbook ever... 7 losses straight and still doubling down on leverage like it's gonna be different this time. tbh the only thing being tested here is how much pain tolerance one account can actually have before it finally snaps. watching the tape repeat itself is almost painful to observe.

Haha, this whale is really a textbook for harvesting retail investors. Seven losses and still daring to try an eighth time. I truly admire this courage.

Haha, seven short positions all lost, and now suddenly turning bullish... I think this is a typical case of gambler mentality. After losing so much, still trying to recover, and in most cases, you end up being further harvested.

It's the same guy again, losing seven times and still playing. He made 490,000 this time and thinks he's turning things around? Haha, I bet five bucks he will lose again.

Haha whale, you've played this trick eight times now, it feels like a gambler trying to recover losses... The $490,000 unrealized profit looks great now, but have you truly learned from the lessons of over $500,000 earlier?
