Colossal Whale Bet: $340M Placed on Ethereum with 10x Leverage<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This crypto<\/a> whale<\/strong> demonstrated exceptional timing by opening a massive long position on Ethereum<\/a> at $4,277.26<\/strong> yesterday. This was just hours before Powell’s speech that sent markets soaring. With a position size of 73,282 ETH-USD<\/strong> and 10x leverage, the total position reached an astounding $340.8 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hyperliquid<\/a> data reveals that this trader currently holds $83.58 million<\/strong> in perpetual positions, with almost all of it in this ETH position. The displayed PnL of +$27.38 million<\/strong> demonstrates exceptional performance<\/strong>. This trade ranks among the most profitable in recent cryptocurrency history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using 10x leverage<\/strong> significantly amplifies the gains. A standard investment would have generated approximately 8.7% profit ($4,651 vs $4,277). The leverage multiplies this return to achieve gains of +87%<\/strong> on the committed capital, resulting in these $27.38 million in profits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Powell, Catalyst for an Unexpected Crypto Jackpot<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What makes this trade truly exceptional is the perfect entry timing. The whale opened its position yesterday, anticipating the positive impact of Powell’s speech<\/strong> at Jackson Hole on crypto markets, particularly on Ethereum<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Powell adopted a dovish tone and opened the door to September rate cuts, Ethereum surged by +9%<\/strong> in just a few hours, jumping from $4,200 to over $4,600<\/strong>. This reaction directly benefited our whale who had positioned its bet before the catalyst.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Analysis of rate cut probabilities shows they increased from 75% to 91.5%<\/strong> after the speech, creating an environment of abundant liquidity particularly favorable to risk assets like Ethereum. The whale had anticipated this development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin Losing Ground: Whales Prefer Ethereum<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This trade is part of a broader trend observed among every crypto whale: the rotation of capital from Bitcoin to Ethereum. Several historical whales have recently converted their BTC positions to ETH<\/strong>, anticipating Ethereum outperformance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another “old” whale recently reactivated a dormant wallet containing 14,837 BTC and converted more than 400 BTC to ETH<\/strong>. This opened leveraged long positions on Hyperliquid for an amount of $295 million<\/strong>. This synchronization is not a coincidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On-chain data shows that whales accumulated 200,000 ETH<\/strong> ($515 million) in Q2 2025, with significant leveraged positions on Hyperliquid. This massive accumulation often precedes major bullish movements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even institutions like Bit Digital have explicitly shifted their treasuries from BTC to ETH, selling 280 Bitcoin to raise $172 million<\/strong> intended for Ethereum accumulation. This institutional rotation amplifies the trend initiated by whales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
