Key points

  • SMc060 is back at No. 2 on DeepSea's 7-day Smart Money board with +$23.24 million, up from No. 6 and +$9.49 million on November 7.
  • The top 10 show $129.55 million of 7-day profit, up from $110.08 million on November 7 and $120.83 million on November 8.

What DeepSea's data shows

DeepSea's Smart Money board ranks wallets with strong trading records by profit over the last seven days. It is a rolling window, so big days drop off as new ones come in.

On November 6 SMc060 led with +$59.67 million. A day later it showed +$9.49 million and sat sixth. On November 8 it was already back to second at +$19.65 million. At about 12:35 a.m. ET on November 9 it was still second at +$23.24 million, just behind SM6e36 at +$23.44 million. SM6e36 has held first place on all three days, rising from +$20.53 million. Both hold about $213 million in assets. SMc060's trader page shows +$87.34 million over 30 days on $336.99 million of volume; SM6e36's shows +$69.58 million on $512.40 million.

The top three, with SMffa1 at +$19.32 million, add up to $66.0 million, about half of the top 10's $129.55 million. SMc268 (+$8.66 million) is sixth; it was not on the November 7 board at all. The first trader outside Hyperliquid is No. 52, a wallet DeepSea lists on Robinhood, at +$495,500.

How the top 10 moved

The same five names fill the top five as on November 8, in the same order. Lower down, SMe2cf ($113.77 million in assets) moved from 10th to ninth, and SMca06 from 12th to 10th. SMd8ce slipped from ninth to 12th.

Where they trade

These are perpetual futures traders. Perps are contracts with no expiry date that let traders bet on prices going up or down, often with borrowed money. DefiLlama showed $62.50 billion of Hyperliquid perps volume over seven days and $13.71 billion over 24 hours when we checked on November 9.

LC Insight analysis

This section is our reading of the facts above, not a statement of fact.

  • We think SMc060's path shows how much a 7-day board depends on timing. One huge day can lift a wallet to the top, and its exit from the window can drop it just as fast.
  • The top three made half the top 10's profit. The board's totals swing with a few big Hyperliquid accounts.
  • The leaders' gains came in a week when ether fell. The data shows profit only. It does not show which side of each trade they took.

What's next

  • Whether SMc060 passes SM6e36 for first place
  • Whether the top 10 total holds above $120 million as November 6 leaves the 7-day window
  • Whether any non-Hyperliquid trader reaches the top 50
