The APT project team drew a bloody fork on the $15 pump plan. Within three hours of this fork falling, I saw over $1.1 billion in funds performing the same action on the monitoring dashboard—converting altcoins into over-collateralized stablecoins.



At 2 a.m., 17 on-chain orders were executed, totaling over $400 million. The market maker's emergency communication group started flooding with "Margin Call" alerts. But what hit me harder was what my monitoring panel showed: among these liquidated positions, 73% of the collateral was still other altcoins. They used bubbles to cushion bubbles, and a single needle pricked right through.

The chilling moment came 72 hours before the black swan attack. I noticed a strange data pattern: an APT market maker address had converted 85% of its BTC reserves into APT to gamble on a rally. But that wasn't the deadliest part. They also opened short hedge positions worth $32 million on stablecoin platforms. Even more dangerously— their borrowing collateralization ratio had already hit the 125% warning line.

I immediately took three actions:

First, liquidate all altcoins and convert them into stablecoins via cross-chain swaps.

Second, transfer 60% of the stablecoins to a multi-signature yield contract on the Tron chain, with an annualized yield of 11.2%.

Third, set up a "death ladder" bottom-fishing condition for the remaining funds—if BTC drops below 68,000, activate 10% of the funds; if mainstream altcoins fall more than 45%, activate 20% of the funds.

The story on the chain never lies. It’s just that some are willing to listen, and some are not.
APT-2.83%
BTC0.02%

Damn, this move... directly throwing BTC to gamble on a pump, is it because they think death isn't fast enough? This move is really bold, betting with a 125% collateral ratio even when hitting the death line... I'm speechless. Bubble upon bubble, you’re right on point. I should have listened to you and cleared out earlier. The death ladder strategy is indeed reliable. I want to learn this move too. The bad news is the pump failed. The good news is, we can buy the dip again? Haha. This on-chain story... those who understand, understand; those who don’t, will never understand. 73% collateral is still in coins... isn’t this a suicidal trade? Is the 11.2% yield on TRON really true? I need to check. Betting on a pump and then hedging with a short... this combo is really fierce. I’ve wanted to clear out altcoins for a long time, just lacking a decisive reason.

This wave of APT tactics is really impressive. Betting on a rally with BTC and then using 125% leverage... I just want to ask, are market makers out of their minds? The bubble padding is truly outrageous. Once on-chain data comes out, it's all over. That's why I firmly avoid altcoins. I was watching the live stream during the 1.1 billion yuan fund run in three hours. I really couldn't hold it anymore. 85% BTC to swap for APT and still dare to open short positions for hedging? Isn't that asking for death? It should have exploded long ago. I'm trying to learn how to set up death ladders for bottom fishing. This tactic can be used.

Damn, this operation made me nervous, the bubble cushion bubble analogy is excellent. Waiting for BTC to break 68k, the bottom-fishing funds are ready. This wave of APT players are really going all out, 85% BTC all in betting on a rally? Wake up, brother. On-chain data never lies, the problem is we need to understand it. 125% collateralization ratio is imminent, this is a ticking time bomb. Honestly, 11.2% annualized sounds good, but Tron needs to be cautious. And that 73% collateral for altcoins, I just ask, how else can it explode? Everyone is waiting to see what happens after 72 hours, it's tense.

honestly, this is just 2018 tulip mania vibes on a blockchain. 85% btc → alt coin yolo followed by 125% collateral ratio? statistically speaking, we've seen this exact playbook crash exactly 4 times already. those makers betting the farm on pump & dumps always forget—history rhymes, losses rhyme even louder.
