After the market crash on August 18, analyst Andrew Kang adopted a bullish stance. He opened long positions on Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Arbitrum (ARB). However, this decision resulted in a significant loss.
Due to his use of extremely high leverage, which reached up to 100x, Kang's positions became vulnerable and were liquidated not once, but as many as fourteen times.
These successive liquidations caused Kang to lose approximately $432,000 in a single day. This incident highlights the risks associated with trading and employing high leverage, especially during periods of intense market volatility.
