Machi Big Brother sells 3 Bored Apes to cut his Ethereum long in 52%, but liquidation moved to just $22 away

Three Bored Ape sales at steep losses accompanied a month-long contraction in the leveraged Ethereum account that Lookonchain publicly tracks as Machi Big Brother's. By Aug. 14, official venue data showed the ETH long had been cut by more than half, yet the market remained close to the account's liquidation line.

At 3:51:43 p.m. UTC, Hyperliquid's public Info API showed the address holding a 2,500 ETH long with a displayed 25x leverage setting and a liquidation price of $1,859.15, and 14 seconds later the venue's ETH midpoint was $1,881.65. That left an indicative $22.50 gap, with the midpoint 1.21% above the reported liquidation price at that moment.

The position was 52.51% smaller than the 5,264 ETH long position Lookonchain reported on July 14. Its liquidation price was $102.39 higher than the $1,756.76 level in that earlier snapshot. The two figures captured less exposure without a wide cushion against further market weakness.

Etherscan labels the address as machibigbrother.eth, while HypurrScan shows an account page for the same hexadecimal address, supporting the public address attribution used by Lookonchain.
