The Latest Ethereum Whale Activity: Should ETH Investors Worry?

In this article, we will review the latest trends on the matter, including who is selling and who is buying. The Sell-Offs CryptoPotato has repeatedly reported in recent weeks the significant ETH sales completed by large investors, including whales and Galaxy Digital. The latter, in fact, has even started to replace its ether holdings with SOL, which could be an even more worrying trend. These developments led to a price slump to $1,400 earlier this month. ETH managed to recover some of the losses and spiked to $1,800, which has only allowed some investors to cash out at more favorable prices. According to data shared by Ali Martinez, whales have disposed of 262,000 ETH after the asset’s price started to recover. In USD terms, this stash is worth around $445 million.
