Trader Loracle.hl liquidates shorts for a $46.46M loss, shifts to aggressive long positions in HYPE, ZEC, and NEAR
High-beta altcoins rally as Arthur Hayes’ bullish targets and technical breakouts attract speculative flows

On June 3, 2026, Cointelegraph reported Loracle.hl locked in a $46.46 million loss shorting Hyperliquid’s token (HYPE) before reversing course and opening large leveraged longs in HYPE, Zcash (ZEC), and NEAR Protocol (NEAR)—the so-called “holy trinity” of high-beta altcoins endorsed by Arthur Hayes. By Wednesday, Loracle.hl’s new positions were in the green, and unrealized profits reached over $920,000, led by strong momentum in ZEC.

Market analyst Victoria highlighted that HYPE showed further upside potential after a recent bull pennant breakout, with an immediate target near $105—roughly 45% above the latest price of $72.80. At the same time, Arthur Hayes unveiled ambitious forecasts: $150 for HYPE by August 2026, a 20x run for NEAR by 2027, and a 5x move for ZEC within a year. These targets helped galvanize speculative inflows into the three tokens, shifting sentiment from defensive positions to risk-on trades concentrated in high-beta assets.

The “holy trinity” rally came against a backdrop of risk-off moves in major cryptocurrencies, as Cardano fell sharply and Bitcoin weakened after Michael Saylor’s BTC sale, Forbes reported on June 3. The three tokens bucked the trend, fueled by whale activity and a surge in social media narrative, sparking a market rotation from large-cap coins into speculative altcoins. This reinforced the momentum-driven trading evident in HYPE, ZEC, and NEAR.

On June 3, 2026, data from HypurrScan, HyperBot, and Cointelegraph confirmed Loracle.hl’s shift to long positions marked a pivotal change in altcoin sentiment. Technicals, whale flows, and Hayes’ public bullish projections converged, supporting further upside for these assets, though volatility remains high as broader crypto uncertainty continues.

As of June 3, 2026, 19:09 UTC, Hyperliquid (HYPE) trades at $74.163 (+4.54%), NEAR Protocol (NEAR) at $2.882 (+12.88%), and Zcash (ZEC) at $611.952 (+2.09%).
