Where smart money is positioned right now
Consensus here means one thing only: of the tracked wallets that hold a market, how many sit on the same side. A cluster counts when at least 65% agree and at least four wallets are involved, so three-of-three can't outrank thirteen-of-sixteen.
| Market | Side | Consensus | Notional | Concentration | Hard liq walls |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ETH | SHORT | 74% (28/38) | $122.2M | 45% | — |
| SILVER (stock) | LONG | 70% (7/10) | $49.7M | 86% | — |
| BRENTOIL (stock) | SHORT | 67% (6/9) | $11.0M | 51% | — |
| VVV | LONG | 67% (6/9) | $8.2M | 72% | $4K |
| XYZ100 (stock) | SHORT | 75% (6/8) | $6.7M | 71% | $642K |
| SKHX (stock) | LONG | 67% (14/21) | $6.3M | 45% | — |
| AERO | LONG | 67% (4/6) | $6.1M | 80% | $578K |
| AAPL (stock) | LONG | 100% (6/6) | $5.1M | 68% | — |
| ADA | LONG | 71% (5/7) | $4.7M | 79% | — |
| DOGE | LONG | 83% (5/6) | $4.6M | 99% | $3K |
| ENA | LONG | 67% (10/15) | $4.3M | 50% | $80K |
| ORCL (stock) | LONG | 100% (4/4) | $3.6M | 64% | $1.3M |
Concentration is the largest single wallet's share of the cluster. Above 60% it is one bet, not a crowd.
Bitcoin and the majors
Bitcoin is held by 40 tracked wallets right now: 19 long, 21 short, $52.7M on the heavier side. At 53% that falls short of the gate, so there is no BTC consensus to speak of today.
Beyond BTC, ETH is 74% short across 38 wallets; DOGE is 83% long across 6 wallets.
Tokenized stocks: the part nobody else tracks
Hyperliquid's HIP-3 markets put equities, indices and commodities on the same order book as crypto perpetuals. 10 of them are crowded today, 3 leaning short, with Semiconductors the busiest at 3 markets.
| Market | Sector | Side | Consensus | Notional |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SILVER | Commodity | LONG | 70% | $49.7M |
| BRENTOIL | Commodity | SHORT | 67% | $11.0M |
| XYZ100 | Index | SHORT | 75% | $6.7M |
| SKHX | Semiconductors | LONG | 67% | $6.3M |
| AAPL | Big Tech | LONG | 100% | $5.1M |
| ORCL | Big Tech | LONG | 100% | $3.6M |
| SKHY | Semiconductors | SHORT | 75% | $2.9M |
| META | Big Tech | LONG | 80% | $2.3M |
Liquidation walls within reach
Crowding only becomes actionable once you know where those positions get force-liquidated. These clusters have hard liquidation prices — isolated-margin positions, fixed at entry — sitting within 15% of spot:
| Market | Crowded side | Wall within 15% | Cluster size |
|---|---|---|---|
| XYZ100 | SHORT | $642K | $6.7M |
| AERO | LONG | $578K | $6.1M |
| ORCL | LONG | $523K | $3.6M |
| NBIS | LONG | $347K | $766K |
| ENA | LONG | $77K | $4.3M |
Cross-margin liquidation prices move with account collateral, so they are counted separately and never merged into these totals.
What this means if you follow wallets
Copy trading follows one wallet. Consensus asks a different question: how many independently profitable wallets landed on the same side. The two disagree more often than people expect, which is why we publish the spread rather than a single call.
Worth noting today — 8 crowded clusters have already run past the cohort's own average entry: BRENTOIL 13.2%, SKHX 9.2%, AAPL 5.3%, LINK 21.9%. The crowd is in profit there; a fresh entry is buying a move that already happened.
And 12 clusters are dominated by a single wallet — SILVER at 86%, VVV at 72%, XYZ100 at 71%, AERO at 80%. The percentage looks like agreement; the size says otherwise.
Methodology
- Consensus = same-direction wallets ÷ wallets holding that market. Gate: 65% and 4+ wallets.
- Grades are percentile ranks recomputed daily, not fixed thresholds. S = top-quartile 90-day return (currently ≥327%) and at or above the median win rate (≥53%).
- Hard vs soft walls — isolated positions have a liquidation price fixed at entry and are exact; cross positions move with collateral and are indicative only.
- Liquidation and leverage figures are as of 2026-10-10, refreshed daily at 09:05 UTC. Positions are live.
- We publish no backtest, because we don't have one. This is a snapshot of positioning, not a forecast.
