#以太坊大户持仓变化 Ethereum's bulls and bears are fiercely contesting, with key price levels showing whale divergence💥

Recently, Ethereum has been oscillating between $3000 and $3200, and on-chain data reveals an interesting phenomenon—major holders are clearly divided into camps.

The bulls are aggressively accumulating at low levels. On January 3rd, a massive whale/institution withdrew 20,000 ETH (equivalent to $62.3 million) from several mainstream platforms within 12 hours. This move clearly indicates accumulation when prices are low, seemingly betting on a rebound.

The bears are not showing weakness either. During the same period, another whale account opened a 10x leveraged short position, totaling 21,800 ETH (about $66.51 million), with an average entry price around $3016. This operation blatantly bets on the price going down.

Looking at the background, Ethereum has been in a consolidation pattern since its peak in 2021, and market analysis suggests 2026 could be a watershed— a critical point that determines the long-term direction of this asset. Also, the previously famous "1011 Insider Whale," currently still holding a long position in ETH, is still at a loss.

Reversal actions among whales often hint at the next market move. Bulls accumulating at lows, bears building shorts at highs—this is about to produce a result. $ETH Can this standoff break the long-term consolidation and start a new trend? Or will it continue to grind within this range? It feels like something interesting is coming.

Whales are fighting each other; it's just entertainment to watch. In the end, retail investors like us are the ones losing money.

Whales fighting, we just watch the show, anyway, eating melons is the most enjoyable Bull and bear factions are blood relatives, can this wave of 2026 really determine the winner? Over $3000, this position is a bit awkward, I wish I had bought the dip on January 3rd That whale at 1011 must be crying in the corner now, the feeling of loss is hard to bear Playing with 10x short positions like this, if there's a reverse liquidation, it will be interesting Whether this range can be broken next depends on who is more ruthless This consolidation has been brewing for so long, sooner or later a direction will be chosen

Whales are playing mahjong, repeatedly tugging back and forth for so long is really exhausting.

Whales fighting, we're just watching the show; quietly dollar-cost averaging at the lows is the real strategy. --- This wave of data looks like a "spy drama," and Bear Bear is quietly taking notes, waiting to see who breaks first. --- Over 60 million in funds are battling each other, and I'm just quietly accumulating here, feeling like I’m making a profit haha. --- The 2026 watershed is a bit scary, but currently, this consolidation zone is truly a paradise for DCA, just hold tight and don’t move. --- That whale at 1011 is still in loss, and Bear Bear feels even more at ease, indicating that those bottoming out now are patient players. --- Using 10x leverage on a short position and going all-in—this move is quite thrilling. I still prefer a gentle DCA approach. --- Can it break through the consolidation? Instead of predicting, it's better to dollar-cost average. Historical data tells me that this is the ultimate test of patience.

Wow, both sides are fighting each other. This is the real whale battle. Wait, is that 1011 whale still at a loss? It feels like it's about to break below the support level.

This wave of whale hedging is really fierce, it feels like a riot is about to break out. Wait, a 10x leverage short? This guy is really ruthless. The bulls are accumulating at the bottom, while the bears are going all-in... a classic gambler's mentality. 2026 is the watershed? So what exactly is this market doing right now? I just want to know when that 1011 whale will stop bleeding. Waiting for these big players to cut each other's throats; anyway, retail investors are just here to give away money. What does this data indicate? It just shows that no one really believes in the current price. Long or short, someone is going to get wiped out no matter what, it just depends on who breaks first. Watching the excitement, but in reality, it's just throwing a tantrum. Wake up, everyone.

Whales are fighting each other, so I'll just watch the show. Anyway, they didn't go easy on me when they were cutting my meat.

Whales fighting, and we're just watching the show—that's normal market operation. Both sides are throwing so much money in, it really means something is about to happen. That guy at 1011 is still losing money, haha. The 2026 watershed theory feels like it’s setting the stage for a subsequent sharp drop or surge. Buying the dip at low levels and shorting at high levels happen simultaneously, betting on who backs down first. If this wave can break through 3200, those who accumulated early will be the ones to benefit. If it continues to grind, we really have to endure slowly and see who can hold out.
