Andrew Tate’s track record on leveraged markets is now matched with other bad examples of experienced traders exaggerating their positions. According to the latest findings by on-chain sleuths, the four-time world kickboxing champion just trashed another $235K on a 40-times multiplied Bitcoin (BTC) price position.

Bitcoin’s Sub-$90K Dip Melts Cobra Tate’s Wallet

Totally unsuspecting Bitcoin’s (BTC) drastic pullback below $100K, Andrew Tate’s 40x play got wiped out on November 14, 2025. A few months earlier, Mr. Tate garnered humongous sums from Hyperliquid’s referral program, but all of that money went back in.

In mid September, Tate’s lousy-timed play on Donald Trump-backed World Liberty Financial (WLFI) resulted in a devastating $67.5K deficit, as two subsequent longs on WLFI token got liquidated in between a few hours. Even earlier, Cobra Tate splashed $597K on a 25x Ethereum (ETH) long back in June, quickly getting beaten by the crypto bears.

Tate’s Trading Behavior Resembles Rising Trend

This puts the celebrity crypto trader’s total profit & loss at an eye-watering level of just above 35% of leveraged crypto plays hitting the target. On top of that, this brings the all-time deficit to $794K on Hyperliquid, but market watchers suspect the Hustler University commander has a few different crypto wallets to shuffle through, so the exact figure could be closer to $1 million.

As the crypto markets tumble below $3.20 trillion, it’s yet to be seen if Tate places any other Bitcoin (BTC) & Ethereum (ETH) price plays, while an ‘Inverse Tate’ trading model could soon be taking place, similarly to Jim Cramer’s constantly wrong market takes, garnering him media attention for all the wrong reasons.

On the other hand, Tate’s over-leveraged price plays on BTC, ETH & WLFI presents a broader trend among crypto market participants. Flushing $19 billion last month despite ‘Uptober’ vibes, the Perpetuals markets revealed a story of greed among leveraged investors, choosing ultra high leverage for potentially juicier gains.

People Also Ask:

What sparked Tate’s crypto downfall?

Tate dumped $727K into Hyperliquid for leveraged perps trading, chasing ETH, BTC, and meme plays like WLFI. But with 25x-40x leverage, one market dip nuked it all—no withdrawals, just pure Ls stacking up since early ’25.

How bad were his actual trading stats?

Out of 80+ trades, he only won 29—a pathetic 35.5% hit rate. Total bleed: ~$700K, with zero signs of a comeback strategy beyond “one big win” bravado.

Which trades gutted his bag the hardest?

Biggest bloodbaths: $597K on a 25x ETH long in June (entry ~$2,515), $93K on a 40x BTC long in October, and $67.5K on WLFI in September when it tanked from $0.33 to $0.21.

Is this his first rodeo with crypto fails?

No, Tate’s been hyping pump-and-dumps since ’24 (like Germany Coin), but ’25 flipped the script—onchain transparency exposed his Hyperliquid wallet as a black hole.

What’s the real lesson from Tate’s liquidation?

Leverage is a double-edged sword—amplifies gains for pros, but vaporizes inexperienced ones (or ego-driven influencers). Tate’s saga screams “DYOR and risk-manage”.
