According to @ranyi1115, Agent Arthur released a production-ready arthur-sdk on PyPI that enables AI agents to trade perpetuals on Arthur DEX through Orderly with minimal code (source: @ranyi1115, PyPI arthur-sdk). The SDK provides human-readable APIs, removes complex signature handling, and advertises a 3-line setup for perp execution, designed for agents rather than manual click trading (source: @ranyi1115, GitHub arthur-orderly/agent-trading-sdk). For trading teams and developers, this toolkit streamlines agentic execution for perpetual futures on a DEX stack aligned with Orderly, reducing integration friction for automated strategies (source: @ranyi1115).

According to @EmberCN, the two largest ETH long positions on Hyperliquid have been liquidated and Trend Research has begun stop-loss reductions, source: @EmberCN. According to @EmberCN, a whale with roughly $181 million in ETH longs was fully liquidated with about $54 million in total losses, source: @EmberCN. According to @EmberCN, another whale with roughly $660 million in ETH longs was fully liquidated with about $230 million in total losses, source: @EmberCN. According to @EmberCN, the author questioned whether the short-term move may be near exhaustion, source: @EmberCN.

According to @milesdeutscher, more than $2.58B in crypto positions were liquidated in the last 24 hours. According to @milesdeutscher, this total exceeds the estimated liquidations during the FTX collapse at $1.75B and the Luna/UST collapse at $1.5B. According to @milesdeutscher, a 10/10 event saw $19B+ in liquidations and the market has been "broken" since. According to @milesdeutscher, these comparisons are provided to contextualize the severity of the move for traders.

According to @ai_9684xtpa, a top A9 trader on Hyperliquid who once had unrealized profit of about $142 million was fully liquidated after a sharp drop in BTC and ETH, wiping out a large long exposure reportedly sized around 700 million; the trader’s PnL trail and positions can be viewed on hyperbot.network/trader/0xb317d2bc2d3d2df5fa441b5bae0ab9d8b07283ae (source: @ai_9684xtpa; data: hyperbot.network). According to @ai_9684xtpa, BTC broke 76k and ETH fell near 2250, triggering precise liquidation on the account’s largest ETH long with a stated liquidation level around 2262.7, turning prior gains into an alleged $230 million loss over 56 days from an initial opening on 2025-12-07 (source: @ai_9684xtpa; data: hyperbot.network/trader/0xb317d2bc2d3d2df5fa441b5bae0ab9d8b07283ae). According to @ai_9684xtpa, Hyperliquid’s HLP treasury captured about $15 million in profit from the event, with aggressive short sellers also benefiting as the position unwound (source: @ai_9684xtpa).

According to @EmberCN, a whale’s roughly 230 million USDC long on Hyperliquid held for nearly two months was fully liquidated when ETH dropped to about 2.2k at 02:43, wiping the position’s margin (source: @EmberCN). The trader had transferred around 230 million USDC into Hyperliquid in early December to open the long, and the liquidation consumed the entire amount (source: @EmberCN). Despite this loss, the entity still holds assets valued around 4.8 billion, including approximately 901,000 ETH and 33,000 BTC (source: @EmberCN). For traders, this confirms that a widely watched whale liquidation level on ETH perpetual futures was reached on Hyperliquid, marking a key deleveraging event on the long side (source: @EmberCN).

According to @ai_9684xtpa, wallet 0xd9012A0C82242B04ee09E45e98B24903F982D975 filled 9.9 BTC during the drop at a $77,060.36 average and simultaneously opened a $500K ETH long and a $500K BTC short, source: @ai_9684xtpa and hyperbot.network. The address updated laddered limit buys to target 34.38 BTC in the $71,750–$75,811 range and 115,600 HYPE in the $19–$24.25 range, roughly $2.5M each, source: @ai_9684xtpa and hyperbot.network. Earlier, the wallet deposited 6M USDC to Hyperliquid and placed wider bids for 73.46 BTC between $60,555–$75,555 and 100,000 HYPE between $15–$20.38, source: @ai_9684xtpa and hyperbot.network. For traders, these stacked bids flag visible order book liquidity that could attract fills near those zones, while the concurrent ETH long and BTC short indicate a hedged positioning approach, source: @ai_9684xtpa and hyperbot.network.

According to @BullTheoryio, Bitcoin dropped about $2,800 in roughly 10 minutes, triggering approximately $1.07 billion in long liquidations across derivatives.
