【Blockchain Rhythm】Another big player has been caught in this wave of market movements. At 3:37 PM on January 12th, a high-frequency trading whale (address 0xd25a1) closed a long position of 172.98 BTC, losing $11,000 in this trade.

This address is not a small player—its total historical trading volume has reached $335 million. According to trading records, its monthly profit is $55,095.2, which seems quite good. However, when looking at the full cycle ledger, the total accumulated loss is as high as $822,571.18. This indicates that although there has been some recent improvement, overall, it is still contributing to losses in the long run. This address exemplifies a typical high-frequency trading style, relying on quick in-and-out trades to capture tiny spreads, but clearly, this approach does not always work effectively in this market.

High-frequency trading ultimately ends up doing charity; the accumulated loss of 820,000 can't be hidden at all.

The fate of high-frequency trading: earning tiny profits but having to endure the torment of drawdowns.

High-frequency trading really can't thrive in a bear market; earning from spreads isn't faster than losing. A historical loss of 820,000, this is just paying tuition to the market. Making fifty thousand a month, what's the point? A big fluctuation will wipe it all out, I feel tired just thinking about it.

High-frequency trading still relies on order spoofing to profit from price differences, but when the books are opened, it's all blood... A cumulative loss of 820,000, and a monthly profit of only 50,000 can't fill this gap at all.
