💸TRADING FIRM LOSES $686 MILLION AFTER $ETH PRICE CRASH



Trend Research just suffered a $686M loss on a leveraged Ethereum position.

The firm borrowed stablecoins on Aave and used ETH as collateral to build a $2B long position.

As ETH kept falling, their collateral shrank while their debt stayed the same, forcing liquidation.

After ETH hit ~$1,750 on Feb 4, they sold 332,000 $ETH on Binance to repay loans.
