100 BTC Whale Short at $117.7k — Large, Risky Bet to Watch

I see a 100 BTC whale short opened at $117,711.50 using 20x leverage and a $588,500 cross margin balance. The position shows a small unrealized profit but represents a very large directional bet.

The liquidation sits at $179,221.76, which gives the short substantial buffer against upside moves, but the combination of size and leverage makes this trade high-risk. I wouldn't mirror this trade unless you have deep risk tolerance and capital to match.
