Machi Big Brother is holding $151.17 million in leveraged long positions on Hyperliquid against an account value of $5.95 million. Every position points in the same direction.

Machi Big Brother Stacks $151 Million Across Three Longs
The largest leg is Ethereum (ETH). Machi holds 39,800 ETHat 25x leverage, a position worth$100 million His entry sits near $2,480
Machi Big Brother Perp Positions
Bitcoin (BTC) follows at $44.14 million. That covers 569 BTC at 40x, the highest leverage anywhere in the book. The third leg is Hyperliquid (HYPE). He holds 88,000 tokens at 10x leverage, worth $7.03 million.
All three entries sit within roughly 1% of current marks. Unrealized profit across the account totals $1.2 million. The ETH leg supplies $1.21 million of that figure.
Bitcoin contributes just $35,630 on a $44.14 million position. HYPE, meanwhile, sits $49,650 in the red. Spot holdings on the tracked addresses come to $0.55. The rest of the account value sits in perpetual futures.
Two of Three Assets Move the Wrong Way
Two of the three are already losing ground. Bitcoin has slipped 2.5% to around $77,548, while HYPE has fallen 7.3% to $79.86.
Only Ethereum held its ground. It trades at $2,510 and gained 0.6% on the week, which explains why it carries almost all of his profit.
The pullback follows a strong run. Over 30 days, HYPE has still climbed by 41.5%, Ethereum by 33.6%, and Bitcoin by 23.2%.
Institutional flows turned in the same week. Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) shed $462.73 million in the week ending September 11, ending three straight weeks of inflows.
HYPE funds lost $26.42 million over the same period, breaking a five-week positive run. Ethereum products drew $197.11 million in inflows, marking a fourth consecutive weekly inflow.
Ethereum is carrying the entire book. Bitcoin and HYPE have both given ground, and the Federal Reserve meets on September 16 withhigh odds of a rate increase.
Higher rates typically weigh on risk assets, which would test the two legs where Machi holds heavy leverage.
