Recent on-chain holdings of Ethereum have shown interesting changes. According to data, whale addresses have increased their ETH holdings by approximately 120,000 ETH in just a few days, equivalent to a buy-in of $350 million. Currently, these large holders control about 70% of the total ETH supply, a significant proportion that cannot be ignored.

On the other hand, retail investors are taking the opposite approach—gradually reducing their holdings. What does this shifting dynamic behind the scenes imply? Historically, such moves by smart money are rarely random. When large funds quietly accumulate, it often signals that they are preparing for an important turning point.

Is this a sign of cyclical rotation, or a prelude to a major event? Market participants should pay attention to these changes in holding structures—they often reflect insights that traditional indicators fail to capture.

Whales are stockpiling again secretly, while retail investors are still taking losses. This script is all too familiar.

Whales are secretly accumulating again, while retail investors are still cutting losses. So funny.

They're starting to harvest the little guys again, whales are absorbing the chips and retail investors are fleeing. This old trick still has to play out.

Whales absorbing the supply and retail investors getting liquidated— we've seen this script before. The question is, will this time be just another false alarm? On-chain data is indeed fierce, but I want to know more about where these big players' cost lines are. Backtesting the history, it feels like the routine hasn't changed, still the same old story. 70% of the supply is in hand, claiming there's no tension is false, but don't overestimate the IQ of smart money— they can get trapped just as easily. It's normal for retail investors to run away; after all, it's all about being harvested. Better to face reality early. The 120,000 tokens buy-in looks impressive, but from another perspective, this might really be the last shakeout before accumulation— or simply whales testing liquidity depth? The storm's eye is the safest place. We small fry will continue to buy the dip— anyway, losses won't be that bad. On-chain data is speaking, but I bet the next turning point will come faster than expected. Honestly, this change in holding structure is more valuable than any technical indicator, but unfortunately, most people simply can't understand it.
