Crypto Trader Makes $250K in One Month with Leveraged BTC, ETH, and LINK Positions
A crypto trader known by the wallet label '0x3376' made a remarkable profit on Aster DEX within a month, generating over $250,000 in gains after deploying a relatively small amount of capital across highly leveraged positions.
The trader initially deposited $24,000 USDT into Aster before opening long positions in Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Chainlink (LINK). The leverage on these positions reached up to 100x, with each trade returning more than 10 times the allocated capital.
The account's funds subsequently climbed to a combined $275,000, including money already withdrawn from the platform and capital still held on Aster. According to blockchain data cited by Lookonchain, the trader has withdrawn $91,000 in profit and still holds $184,000 on the decentralized exchange.
