Tate’s wallet balance drops to just $14,000
A Hyperliquid wallet reportedly linked to Andrew Tate opened a 57.36 BTC long position on Wednesday, with an entry price near $66,000, as reported by data resource HyperDash.
The trade was worth about $3.79 million, backed by roughly $100,000 in USDC, implying leverage of around 40x.

The position began unwinding on Thursday as Bitcoin fell toward the mid-$64,000 area. Ultimately, the long trade recorded about $68,600 in cumulative realized losses.
The wallet then switched direction, opening a 14.33 BTC short position worth about $1 million at $64,817. That trade was also hit as Bitcoin rebounded, with five short liquidation fills.

By June 18, the account balance had fallen to around $14,000, thus losing almost the entire deposit.

Andrew Tate’s crypto trading issues on Hyperliquid began well before 2026.
For instance, in November 2025, his 40x BTC long position was liquidated for $235,000 on Nov. 14. By Nov. 18, multiple longs near $90,000–$95,000 were wiped out, leaving the account near zero.

In another instance, Tate lost around $67,500 on World Liberty Financial (WLFI) positions ahead of a token unlock that triggered a sharp drop in September 2025. He re-entered the same trade almost immediately and lost again.

As of Friday, Tate’s all-time performance tab showed perpetual futures losses of $803,800, extending a drawdown that began in early 2025 and deepened again after the latest June liquidation streak.

The trades demonstrate how quickly a leveraged account can lose capital in volatile market conditions, even when the underlying asset moves only a few percentage points.
