Another $100M Blowup: James Wynn’s Leverage Disaster Feels Like Déjà Vu
Another $100M Blowup: James Wynn’s Leverage Disaster Feels Like Déjà Vu

Another day, another nine-figure crypto wreck. James Wynn just joined the hall of fame with a $100M implosion—proof that leverage cuts both ways until it doesn’t.
Margin calls don’t discriminate. Whether you’re a rookie trader or a ’sophisticated’ investor, overleveraged bets eventually meet their maker. Wynn’s playbook? Borrow short, pray long.
The real punchline? This wasn’t even creative destruction. Just the same old story of greed outpacing risk management—with a side of institutional-grade hubris. Wall Street 2.0, same as the old Street.
