On June 6, on-chain analyst Welson reported that a large crypto whale has been steadily accumulating Ether (ETH) amid the token’s recent slump—using leverage to scoop up even more ETH via decentralized lending platform Aave. Over the past 24 hours, the whale borrowed a total of $100 million in USDT from Aave, which it used to purchase 59,742 ETH at an average price of roughly $1,681 per coin. At current ETH prices, this leveraged position is sitting on an unrealized loss of about $6 million.
Right now, the whale holds a total of 133,800 ETH, valued at around $212 million based on today’s rates. Its two leveraged trades have liquidation prices set at $1,356 and $1,170 per ETH, respectively. If ETH continues to decline, both positions remain at significant risk of being liquidated.
