According to Lookonchain, large Ethereum holders (whales) have aggressively accumulated ETH in the past two hours. Wallet address 0xDdb4 borrowed $3.44 million USDC from Aave and immediately purchased 1,856 ETH with it, while 0xf84d borrowed $1.64 million USDC and spent $2.34 million USDC to buy 1,259 ETH. Additionally, a newly created wallet (0x69D0) withdrew 2,250 ETH (worth $4.12 million) from an exchange. This concentrated buying activity from whales signals strong bullish sentiment and could contribute to increased short-term ETH price volatility, making it a key event for traders to monitor (Source: Lookonchain, Twitter, May 1, 2025).

According to @ai_9684xtpa, a major Ethereum whale who previously secured $1.029 million in swing trading profits since April 13 has again shorted ETH, despite a recent $382,000 loss from April 22-25. Eleven hours ago, the whale borrowed 4,000 ETH from Aave and executed a short sale at $1,808.62 per ETH, totaling $7.25 million (source: Twitter @ai_9684xtpa and debank.com/profile/0x5b40). This aggressive short position highlights significant risk-taking and could impact short-term ETH price volatility, making it a key development for traders monitoring whale activity and potential price swings.

According to EmberCN, a notable Ethereum whale has shorted 8,000 ETH over the past 17 hours by borrowing from Aave, then selling at an average price of $1,752.5, converting it into $14.02 million USDT. This strategic move highlights the whale's active trading behavior in the current volatile market conditions.

According to Lookonchain, a mysterious whale or institution withdrew 15,953 ETH worth $26.16M from OKX and deposited it into Aave before borrowing 15.4M USDT, which was then deposited back into OKX. This strategic maneuver suggests a potential arbitrage opportunity or liquidity management strategy that traders should monitor closely for market impacts.
