Abraxas Capital Faces $100M Unrealized Loss On $800M Crypto Short Positions – Details

The crypto market is heating up once again as Bitcoin consolidates just below its all-time highs and Ethereum approaches critical resistance near the $4,000 level. Momentum is building across major assets, and volatility is picking up as capital rotates into altcoins. Traders are closely watching for a breakout, with many expecting a decisive move in the coming days.

Adding to the intensity, blockchain analytics platform Arkham (ARKM) has revealed that Abraxas Capital—a London-based investment management firm known for its aggressive crypto strategies—is currently down over $100 million on its short positions. Arkham specializes in deanonymizing blockchain transactions and linking them to real-world entities, offering deep insight into the strategies and exposures of major players.

With prices steadily climbing, the firm’s unrealized losses are mounting, highlighting the risks of betting against a rising market. This revelation has sparked conversation across the industry, as it not only underscores growing institutional involvement but also reveals the shifting dynamics between smart money and market momentum in this stage of the cycle. Crypto traders now watch closely to see how this unfolds.

Abraxas Capital Faces Mounting Losses On $800M Crypto Shorts

According to Arkham Intelligence, Abraxas Capital currently holds nearly $800 million in short positions across Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and HYPE on the Hyperliquid platform. Notably, the largest BTC and ETH shorts on Hyperliquid belong to Abraxas, with data revealing a current unrealized loss (uPnL) of approximately $106.3 million on their account.

These positions reflect a high-stakes strategy that may serve as a hedge against spot holdings or other long-term crypto exposures. However, this hedge is becoming increasingly costly as market conditions remain bullish. Bitcoin continues to consolidate near all-time highs, and any breakout above the $122K–$123K range could push prices toward the $150K–$160K zone—close to Abraxas’ BTC liquidation level at $156,000.

As volatility returns to the market and altcoins start gaining momentum, these leveraged short positions face growing risk. If BTC and ETH break to new highs, unrealized losses on Abraxas’ account could accelerate sharply. While some analysts still expect a market correction, especially given the failure to set new highs in recent weeks, others see the consolidation as a bullish continuation pattern.

Bitcoin Consolidates Between Key Levels

The 12-hour chart shows Bitcoin locked in a tight range between $115,724 and $122,077, with the price currently trading at $118,497. After a sharp rally earlier in July, BTC has entered a consolidation phase, forming a sideways structure with diminishing volume—a typical sign of market indecision.

Despite the lack of breakout, the price remains above all major moving averages: the 50 SMA at $115,943, the 100 SMA at $111,170, and the 200 SMA at $106,348. This alignment supports a bullish trend, with buyers still in control of the broader structure.

However, momentum has stalled. Each attempt to break above $122,000 has been met with resistance, while dips toward $116K have been absorbed quickly. The narrowing price action and falling volume suggest a breakout—or breakdown—is approaching. If bulls manage to clear the $122K level with strong volume, a new rally toward all-time highs could follow. On the flip side, a close below $115K would break the structure and potentially trigger a deeper correction.
