Following yesterday's Starknet valuation controversy, two whales have initiated a short position on STRK and partially closed it today to take some profits
BlockBeats News, January 15th, according to Hyperinsight monitoring, following yesterday's Solana official tweet stating that Starknet's public chain had 8 daily active users and 10 daily transactions, yet a market capitalization of 1 billion U.S. dollars, the comment quickly sparked controversy and discussion in the crypto community. Against this backdrop, a whale identified as the "Shanzhai Air Force Vanguard" and another address starting with 0x023 both opened STRK short positions with approximately 5x leverage. In the past few hours, both whales have closed some of their short positions to take profits. The average entry price for these positions was around $0.0897, with an overall return of approximately 15%.
