Majik’s “Death Spiral” Script: Don’t Follow the Stubborn Trader—Use Him as a Contrarian Indicator

In the past two days, the crypto market has been anything but short on excitement. Meme tokens are bouncing back, and the “distant relatives” of Dogecoin have been taking turns performing backflips—but what really has me staring at the screen without blinking is an on-chain hardhead named “Majik.”

This “Majik” isn’t DOGE, isn’t SHIB, and definitely isn’t some newly issued shitcoin. He’s an ETH whale on-chain with top-tier cash-generating power, but whose luck is always just short by that one crucial breath.

Before getting into any serious analysis of price levels, let me put it plainly: if you’re going to play Majik, don’t follow Majik’s lead. If you follow him, the weeds on your grave will be 3 meters tall.

Let’s talk about this “Majik” that people both love and hate

His name is “Majik,” but so far his actions have nothing to do with magic. If anything, it’s more like “braided rope”—tough and resilient, yet constantly caught on the edge of collapse, rubbing against failure again and again.

On March 26, Onchain Lens spotted a stomach-churning move: as the market fell, Majik’s ETH long positions were liquidated again without mercy. His cumulative losses have already exceeded $30.7 million. If something like this happened to me, I’d probably quietly shut down my computer, throw my seed phrase into the sea, and go farm in the countryside. But Majik is different—he chose the most hardcore move: after being liquidated, he immediately opened a new long with 25x leverage.

What do you call that mindset? It’s “love even when you die.”

But the problem is: over the past nine months, this whale big brother has racked up nearly $60 million in unrealized losses trading Meme coins. $60 million—not $600. That number is enough to buy a unit in a residential building in Beijing’s Second Ring Road, or even write off an entire landmark office tower in a new first-tier city. Yet he still didn’t cut losses—and on X, he keeps shouting that he’s bullish on a rebound.

Let me translate that into plain talk: a person who has already lost $60 million is holding 25x leverage and telling you, “This trade is a sure thing.” Would you follow him into it?

Anyway, I wouldn’t.

My strategy: Following Majik is worse than taking the other side

What’s the core spirit of blockchain? Decentralization, transparency, and immutability. But Majik has given us a third valuable lesson—his on-chain records are more accurate than candlestick charts. When he goes all-in immediately after liquidation, it’s very likely the tail end of a phase of rebounds.

This isn’t mysticism—this is behavioral finance. Someone who’s been liquidated until they’re completely destroyed, yet charges back in with an attitude of “I won’t accept it”—that often signals that emotions have reached their peak. And the market never caters to emotions.

Based on ETH’s current technical picture: Ethereum has been ranging around $2,000, forming a typical “two-way liquidation” structure. Around $2,149 on the upside there are about $801 million worth of shorts at risk, while around $1,960 on the downside there are about $739 million worth of longs in immediate danger. In 24 hours, the whole network saw $133 million in liquidations—both sides got wiped out—so nobody can claim they were worse off than the other.

And Majik’s behavior of doubling down by opening more longs immediately after being liquidated hits right into the dense long zone. Combined with the rhythm of him adding positions after each liquidation in the past, this area is very likely the starting point of long liquidation bloodshed—not the starting point of a reversal.

So my conclusion is straightforward: wait until the next candle that causes Majik to be liquidated—then is the real moment to probe for a bottom. Before that, if he rushes in which direction, you place orders in the opposite direction.

Specific Entry Points and Liquidation Prices (using ETH as an example)

Since Majik is anchoring to ETH, we’ll use ETH as the core asset.

Short Strategy (going against Majik)

Majik has just been liquidated on ETH and then reopened a long with 25x leverage. I believe the bullish energy on this move has been used up.

· Entry points: Establish short positions in batches in the $2030–$2050 range. ETH is currently consolidating in this area, and trading volume has shrunk noticeably. Once it breaks below support, the downside could blow open like a dropped plate.
· Stop-loss: $2080. If ETH can hold effectively above $2080, that means the bulls still have one last breath. Exit first, wait for Majik to get liquidated again, then look for opportunities.
· First take-profit target: $1960. This level is the prior low support zone and the liquidation trigger for about $739 million in longs. Once it breaks below $1960, the short-circuit reaction of liquidations will topple like dominoes.
· Second take-profit target: $1900. Market sentiment has already plunged to “extreme fear.” If geopolitical risks keep simmering and oil prices don’t fall, $1800–$1900 is not a fantasy.

Liquidation Price Analysis (25x Leverage)

If Majik really comes in with 25x leverage, his liquidation price should be around $1,790 (calculated based on an average entry price of $2,010). Once ETH breaks below this price, his $30.7 million loss is just a warm-up—another round of liquidation will show you what “cash power evaporates” looks like. In the past 24 hours, $77.83 million in longs were liquidated across the whole network, and this is only the beginning.

Risk-Control Reminder: Don’t learn from Majik—he’s a cautionary tale

After writing all this, I have to pour a bucket of cold water at the end. The current crypto landscape really is a bit weird: the Meme sector is recovering, but the total supply of Meme coins has expanded to a historical high, while active wallets have shrunk from their peak of over 30 million to only a few million. In plain terms—there are more and more “vegetables,” but fewer and fewer people to eat.

Majik’s style of “when you get liquidated, crank the leverage to the max and rush in again” can only end in two outcomes: either making the news, or becoming material for meme compilations in the crypto community. He chose both.

My advice is simple: use Majik as your contrarian indicator, not as a trading role model. If you don’t want to share the $60 million loss he’s taking, keep your position size within 5% of your total capital—don’t touch futures, and don’t use leverage. Surviving in this market matters far more than getting rich overnight.

Follow Majik and you can only place inverse trades; if you follow his direction, be prepared for liquidation.
