Bitcoin Whale Who Made $88 Million After Trump’s China Tariff Announcement Buys This Altcoin At $0.015, Does He Have Insider Knowledge?

A Bitcoin whale who reportedly earned over $88 million after President Donald Trump’s surprise announcement to impose a 100% China tariff is back in the spotlight — and his latest move has the crypto world buzzing. According to on-chain data, the Bitcoin whale has just made a major move into the under-the-radar altcoin Paydax (PDP), currently priced at just $0.015. Traders and analysts are now asking: Is this strategic market timing or insider knowledge driving the decision, and could early adopters see massive gains by following suit?

Donald Trump’s China Tariffs And Strategic Market Moves

Whales are known for timing the market better than most, and this Bitcoin whale’s track record is no exception. On October 10, President Trump announced that the U.S. would impose a 100% China tariff starting November 1 or earlier, citing China’s “aggressive position” on trade. The news sent shockwaves through global markets, creating volatility that sent altcoins crashing and caught many traders off guard.

But not all investors reacted the same way. One Bitcoin whale, known for his precise market timing, opened a Bitcoin short just 30 minutes before Donald Trump’s China tariff announcement, ultimately turning the market swing into $88 million in profits. 

Now, the Bitcoin whale has shifted his focus to the altcoin, Paydax, seeing what analysts call a similar asymmetric opportunity—but this time, it’s not a bet against the market; it’s a strategic entry into the next wave of DeFi innovation.

Why This Bitcoin Whale Is Moving Into Paydax (PDP)

Paydax (PDP) was built to protect against market volatility and solve a fundamental problem in the crypto market: idle assets sitting dormant in staking, vesting, or presale allocations. Instead of letting these assets remain idle, Paydax transforms them into liquidity and earning potential, all while preserving ownership.

Source: Paydax Protocol

Here’s how it works:

  • Borrowing Without Selling: Users can borrow stablecoins or altcoins against long-term holdings, including BTC and other major cryptocurrencies, without liquidating positions.
  • Tokenized Real-World Assets (RWAs): The protocol extends borrowing to RWAs, from gold to luxury artwork, unlocking liquidity without selling.
  • Flexible Loan-to-Value (LTV): Borrow anywhere from 60% up to 97% of your asset’s value.

Consider recent market turbulence: Following Donald Trump’s China tariff announcement, over $19 billion in crypto was liquidated, wiping out countless portfolios. Traders with Paydax could have borrowed PDP or stablecoins against their holdings, staked for yield, and avoided catastrophic losses.

Even the Bitcoin whale who made $88 million following the China tariff announcement by Donald Trump in a traditional setup might have been forced to liquidate long-term assets to place short bets during the crash. With Paydax, however, he could have accessed liquidity without selling, using his holdings to borrow, stake, or leverage simultaneously—turning a market downturn into a strategic opportunity.

Competitive APY Rewards

Beyond letting users borrow against their assets, PDP offers attractive yield opportunities that make it appealing for both retail investors and institutional players like the Bitcoin whale:

  • Stablecoin staking → up to 6% APY. 
  • Redemption Pool → up to 20% APY. 
  • Protocol Staking→ up to 5% APY. 
  • Yield farming → up to 41.25% APY.

These incentives, combined with liquidity flexibility, make Paydax a compelling alternative to the traditional DeFi altcoin.

Building Credibility in a Volatile Market

Unlike many altcoins that make lofty promises, Paydax’s credibility is rooted in security and transparency. In scenarios similar to recent volatility triggered by Donald Trump’s China tariff announcement, Paydax can help protect users from major losses.

For starters, the PDP token powers every action in the ecosystem, guaranteeing its value is not entirely dependent on market swings and helping users avoid catastrophic losses. Additional security measures include:

  • Gnosis Safe multi-sig wallets to prevent unilateral fund access.
  • Emergency shutdown functions for extreme market events like the recent market crash following Donald Trump’s China tariff announcement.
  • Strict audit & KYC Verification from Assure DeFi, to guarantee transparency and investor protection.

Beyond security, Paydax emphasizes transparency and trusted partnerships:

Role / Benefit Partner
Real-time asset pricing Chainlink
High-value collateral security Brinks
Tokenized RWA validation Sotheby’s

 

These measures demonstrate that Paydax is a resilient, trustworthy DeFi altcoin, designed to give investors both security and growth potential.

Turn Timing Into Opportunity With Paydax Presale

Crypto wealth creation often comes down to timing—buying early or selling strategically. Just like the Bitcoin whale who opened a BTC short 30 minutes before the market crash triggered by Donald Trump’s China tariff announcement, early positioning can lead to massive gains. The Paydax (PDP) presale is still in its earliest stage, trading at just $0.015 per token, with the next tier already lined up for price increases that could deliver over 10x gains.

That means even a modest $1,000 position could see astronomical upside, potentially over 10,000% as the token matures. And the timing couldn’t be better: Paydax is offering a 25% buying bonus using the code PD25BONUS. 

With nearly 98% bullish sentiment on CoinMarketCap and early accumulation surging, Paydax is quickly becoming one of the most-watched DeFi altcoins on the market. If this momentum continues through its exchange listings, early positioning could mean joining the next wave of DeFi winners. In a market where timing decides everything, this could be the moment to make your move.
