Notable trades
WLFI
Jan 2025
~$250M mark at open
About $15M into the first public World Liberty Financial sale in January 2025, 13M USDC and 2.01M USDT for 1B tokens, roughly 1.0% to 1.5% of supply, placed while the token was still described as non-transferable. At the 1 September 2025 open the position marked around $245M to $250M, with 200M tokens unlocked near $49M and 800M locked. A 2026 note recorded an exit from a 200.1M allocation after the price fell from the launch print.
XPL
Aug 2025
~$38M to $39M
About 54.4M XPL built across three wallets in $44k clips on Hyperliquid's pre-market perp, then a 15-second burst at $444k a clip with one print near $4.44M for 7.29M XPL, which he described as a mistyped order. XPL rose about 10.8% in a minute on that venue, with $159M of liquidations and $130M of open interest wiped across more than a thousand accounts. On-chain writeups put his take at $38M to $39M.
Trading style
Concentrated directional bets in perps and token sales, sized until he is a large fraction of the book.
Entries are one clip size repeated rather than one order, split across several wallets. He keeps leverage low once the position is on, and prefers pre-launch and pre-market books to presales, where thin depth and auto-deleveraging do the work leverage would.
Perp profit gets converted into spot. Since 2026 the book has been HYPE held and staked rather than the next squeeze, and he will reverse a directional position inside a week when the tape turns.
Quotes
“Patiently wait for the big obvious trades that have sufficient liquidity to size in with 8 figs.”
