Tate’s promotional post about this trade backfired when users traced his wallet on the decentralized exchange Hyperliquid, exposing his overall losses. The influencer, known for his past endorsements of Bitcoin and the meme coin DADDY, remains defiant, claiming he will recover his losses with a single trade. Meanwhile, DADDY’s value has plummeted 90% since its peak in 2024.
