When the market pulls back, there’s always smart money quietly making moves. Recently, a whale was spotted bucking the trend, spending $35.7 million to scoop up quality assets in the Ethereum ecosystem.

This round of buying targeted only blue-chip tokens—$7.99 million was used to acquire 557,900 LINK, $5.82 million bought 20.14 million ENA, and DeFi blue-chip AAVE saw 25,400 tokens accumulated for $4.9 million(. In addition, the portfolio included 3,175 ETH itself)$10.13 million(, 6.53 million ONDO)$3.27 million(, 340,000 UNI)$2.05 million(, and 22.59 million SKY)$1.09 million(. Even LDO was picked up, with 380,000 tokens)$244,000(.

Interestingly, all these holdings have already been transferred to the on-chain wallet 0xBC64. Judging by this allocation, it’s either an institution setting up a long-term position, or a veteran preparing to catch a rebound rally. Either way, while others are panicking, big money is already getting into position.

ETH-0.07%

ENA0.11%

AAVE2.24%

ONDO-0.92%

Another story of harvesting retail investors, huh? I just want to know who’s behind this whale. If I had known someone still dared to put in money at this time, I wouldn’t have panic sold. LINK and AAVE are definitely solid picks, but calling someone a whale for $35.7 million? Things have gotten surreal lately. Seeing wallets on-chain being so blatant, aren’t they afraid of being copied? I bet $5 this guy will start shilling trades two weeks from now. Forget it, I’ll just stick to DCA honestly. I can’t afford to play these games.

Damn, that’s a big move—putting in 35.7 million just like that. How long would a small retail investor like me have to save up for that? Smart money really lives up to its name. When others are panicking and crying, they’re already scooping up assets. LINK and AAVE really are blue-chip tokens; can’t go wrong holding them. This allocation looks like a bet on a rebound, or maybe they’re just bullish long-term. Who knows. Either way, I don’t have that kind of extra cash—I can only watch others buy the dip with envy. That’s just how institutions operate; moments of panic are often opportunities. If only I hadn’t sold everything at $3,000. Look at wallet 0xBC64—after transferring funds, it goes quiet. Classic whale behavior. Really envy these patient players, who have the guts to make moves when the market’s bleeding red. But then again, this move isn’t guaranteed profit either—there are still risks in DeFi.

Damn, it's the same old story of whales quietly making a fortune at the bottom while us retail investors are still struggling with whether to cut our losses. I'm bullish on the LINK and AAVE combo; this guy has good taste, really buying blue-chip assets. We need to keep an eye on this 0xBC64 wallet. Its moves might signal the next rebound.

$35.7 million in operations, I really can't figure it out... What is this guy doing? Is it front-running or does he really believe in it? Let's wait and see. Follow the crowd to buy LINK? I'm too scared. This wallet address is getting famous, is it going to get watched again... Are institutions buying the dip or is it just retail investors taking the bait? Let's watch the show. Wait, is it really worth putting so much money into ENA? With such big moves from whales, do they know some inside information? A bit of both AAVE and LINK, I really don't get the logic. When others panic, I panic too. That's it. Allocating hard assets is pretty particular, but did it make any money?
