The influencer suffered 84 liquidations on the platform over the past year. His largest single loss occurred on November 14 when he lost $235,000 on a bitcoin long position using 40x leverage.
His final liquidation happened on November 21. He opened a long position on bitcoin that was wiped out within an hour. Data from blockchain analytics firm Lookonchain showed Tate was repeatedly “buying the dip” and betting on price rebounds.
His losses coincided with a broader market crash. Bitcoin dropped to around $80,500 on November 21. Nearly 400,000 traders were liquidated that day across the crypto market.
Trading Strategy Backfires
The market downturn wiped out approximately $2 billion in leveraged positions. Tate’s recent trades showed back-to-back losses from trying to time the bitcoin bottom. He opened several leveraged long positions minutes apart with values ranging from $20,000 to $200,000.
Bitcoin has since recovered some losses and was trading around $86,000 on November 24. Tate’s account became public in June after he accidentally revealed it while discussing an Ethereum position. At that time, his account was already down $600,000.
Pivot to Privacy Tech
After his trading losses became public, Tate shifted focus to promoting privacy technology. He posted a video on X discussing zero-knowledge proof solutions instead of addressing his liquidated account.
“Right now, crypto is down, stocks are down, but it’s all coming back and when it does, the new meta is going to be privacy,” Tate said in the video. He claimed artificial intelligence algorithms from tech giants would be used to track crypto transactions.
Tate argued that zero-knowledge privacy solutions allow crypto users to transact without government monitoring. He faces ongoing trafficking and rape charges alongside his brother Tristan.
His Hustlers University program claims to teach people how to make money through cryptocurrency trading. As recently as November 20, Tate encouraged followers to join with promises of instant returns. “Join today, make money today, buy crypto today,” he said.
