According to Lookonchain, whale bc1qcp has purchased an additional 1,500 BTC valued at $159.67 million, bringing their total weekly accumulation to 6,111 BTC ($650.5 million). This address now holds 22,223 BTC worth approximately $2.37 billion. Such significant, ongoing whale accumulation is often interpreted as a bullish signal by traders, increasing market confidence and potentially fueling upward price action in the near term. Market participants are closely monitoring this address for further large-scale moves, as substantial inflows from major holders frequently precede heightened volatility and liquidity in the Bitcoin market (source: Lookonchain via Twitter, blockchain.com/explorer/address).

According to EmberCN on Twitter, two major crypto whales have successfully turned their large short positions on BTC, ETH, and SOL from losses to profits. Whale 0x5b5d used $50.5 million USDC at 5x leverage to short $228 million worth of BTC, ETH, and SOL since May 9, now realizing a $6.38 million profit (source: EmberCN Twitter, May 13, 2025; hypurrscan.io). Whale 0xB83D similarly entered significant leveraged shorts. The profitable turnaround of these large leveraged positions is driving increased short interest and volatility, signaling potential further downside and caution for traders in the current crypto market environment.

According to EmberCN on Twitter, a prominent Ethereum whale who has repeatedly shorted ETH near the $1,800 level recently closed a 10,000 ETH short position at a significant loss. The whale initially sold short 10,000 ETH at an average price of $1,791 on May 1, 2025, and covered the position a week later at $1,834, resulting in a $430,000 loss (source: EmberCN Twitter, May 7, 2025). This move highlights continued upward price pressure in the Ethereum market and signals that aggressive shorting strategies are currently unprofitable. Traders should note the resistance for ETH shorts near $1,800 and consider the implications for volatility and order book liquidity, as whale activity can serve as an indicator for future market direction.

According to @EmberCN, a major Ethereum whale purchased 5,473.7 ETH at $1,802 per coin in the past 3 hours, spending $9.862 million USDT. Previously, in January, the same whale bought 3,634 ETH at $3,208 each. This brings the total holdings to 9,109.6 ETH (worth $16.8 million), with a total investment of $21.52 million and an average entry price of $2,363. The whale is currently facing an unrealized loss of $4.74 million or -22% (source: @EmberCN via Twitter, May 7, 2025). Such significant whale activity and underwater positions may increase market volatility and influence short-term ETH price trends, as large holders often impact liquidity and sentiment. Traders should monitor whale wallet actions closely for potential market signals.

According to EmberCN, a whale has repeatedly shorted Ethereum (ETH) around the $1,800 level, now holding a cumulative short position of 10,000 ETH valued at $17.9 million with an average entry price of $1,791. The whale increased their position by shorting an additional 4,000 ETH within the last hour. Currently, the position is incurring an unrealized loss of $510,000. Traders should monitor this whale's aggressive positioning and potential liquidation risk, as significant short exposure near a key resistance level could drive volatility in ETH price action.
