#Strategy加仓BTC is back! The "Wave King" whale that has been silent for two months suddenly appeared today—over the past 60 minutes, this address transferred out 12,000 $ETH from the top exchange in one go, worth approximately $39.98 million, selling at a price of $3,331.

How good is this whale at making waves? From September to October last year, it sold 30,000 ETH at an average price of $4,201, earning a total of $35.24 million from a single move. Looking at the entire account that bought low and sold high, the historical profit exceeds $31.44 million.

Currently, there are still 80,979 $ETH sitting on the chain untouched, with a total estimated value of $269 million, and an average holding cost of only $3,137. Considering this arbitrage margin and the scale of holdings, this whale is clearly waiting for the next wave. The $BTC market trend often also determines Ethereum's rhythm—recent Bitcoin volatility has indeed given these big players opportunities.

BTC-1,23%

ETH-1,1%

This whale's move is too aggressive; they dared to invest 3331, while I, a retail investor, don't even have the courage to watch.

Damn, this whale is starting to hunt again. I knew silence meant something... I also want to do this, but first I need the capital, haha. Bought in at a cost of 3137 and waiting now. I can't adopt this mindset. Looking at its operation rhythm, the next wave should be coming... Really, watching whales is more useful than watching candlestick charts.

ngl this whale's risk-adjusted returns are *chef's kiss*... but statistically speaking, timing the next dump perfectly? that's where fortunes evaporate. reminds me of UST in May—everyone thought they had it figured out until they didn't.

Damn, this whale is starting to cut the leeks again. The 3331 price level is really aggressive with the dump.

I've been through this before. When big players dump, we have to run. To put it simply, it's just a cycle of rotating and harvesting retail investors.

ngl this whale's just printing money while i'm here stress-checking floor price every 5 mins... probably nothing but that 3137 cost basis is actually insane, ser

This whale is really done for; the cost of 3137 is still accruing interest... waiting for Bitcoin to drop another wave.

This whale is really incredible. If I had this mindset, I would have been financially free long ago.

This whale is really incredible. With a cost of 3137, the current price can still hold steady. I can't figure out how they're mentally preparing for this.
