Bitcoin 40x Leveraged Bets by James Wynn: BTC Longs Up 62% Unrealized Profit, Shorts See Small Gain, First Position Liquidated for ~$100K

COINOTAG News, citing HyperInsight monitoring, flagged a high‑leverage BTC position tied to James Wynn (0x8da). The trader reportedly opened a 40x BTC long at an average entry near $98,000, representing about $1.09 million in notional value with an unrealized gain around 62%. Concurrent bets in ZEC and ASTER remain in profit.

Separately, another publicly linked address (0x507) associated with Wynn holds roughly $7,300 in balance but maintains a 40x BTC short with a $310,000 notional size, showing about $20,000 in profit. The divergence highlights diversified crypto derivatives exposure within the same trading footprint.

Additionally, the report notes Wynn previously told the community that BTC would fall toward $92,000, then opened two BTC short positions. The initial short was liquidated, incurring roughly a $100,000 loss, underscoring risk management and price sensitivity in leveraged crypto strategies.
