Whale's 5 million CRV stuck: from $6.5 million unrealized profit to only $400,000 profit remaining

【BitPush】An interesting on-chain data story reveals a tale about timing.

Last year, a top whale bought 50 million CRV tokens at an average price of $0.26, using around $13 million. This transaction reached a highlight just one month later—CRV surged to $1.3, with unrealized gains exceeding $5.2 million, and the holding value once reaching $6.5 million. But the whale chose to hold and did not sell at the peak.

Now, the story has reversed. Today, this whale has started transferring over 4 million CRV tokens to Binance, while the current CRV price is only around $0.34. The once $5.2 million unrealized profit has now shrunk to a $400,000 gain.

This is how the market works—missing a timing window can turn doubled returns into single-digit growth. The choice of this major holder may well reflect the reality of many current coin holders.
