Recently, there was a very interesting on-chain operation worth discussing.
A top active address on the blockchain invested 12.5 million USDT into a protocol, then executed two key steps. First, they directly used part of the funds to buy over 10,000 HYPE tokens (costing approximately $270,000), and then immediately staked them into a staking contract. This approach clearly isn't aimed at quick profits from short-term fluctuations, but reflects genuine confidence in the ecosystem's prospects, with a mid- to long-term intention to lock in assets and earn yields.
Even more noteworthy is that this address has accumulated 3,500 ETH long positions within the price range of $3190 to $3215, totaling over $11 million. This kind of operation speaks volumes on its own.
From a perspective of large capital, daring to participate in meme coin staking with tens of millions at this moment indicates a strong confidence in the subsequent market trend and the protocol's long-term development. Additionally, stacking such leveraged long positions at this ETH price level reveals a firm belief that this support zone will hold—his judgment is that the downside is limited and a rebound is imminent.
Combining on-chain data, market panic sentiment has largely been digested. The smart money is quietly building positions now. When you see such large-margin longs being set up, it usually means big funds are preparing "ammunition" for the upcoming upward trend.
For spot holders, avoid over-trading at the bottom to prevent missing the rally. Whether ETH can hold this support zone and break upward will be the key focus next. If you're unsure, consider entering gradually rather than chasing after gains once the price has already risen.

Smart money is quietly placing bets. This is a sign that the game equilibrium has been broken... It seems the bottom is indeed close.

Wait, the long position of 3,500 ETH is stacked between 3190-3215? This guy isn't betting on a rebound; he's using funds to forcibly provide support. We need to check whether the contract code of this protocol has reentrancy or permission control vulnerabilities, otherwise, entering such a large amount could easily get him trapped.

This guy is playing hard, risking tens of millions on HYPE staking. I wonder if he's really confident or just overconfident.
3,500 ETH long positions stacked at this price? That's basically betting on the bottom.
Smart money is building positions, while retail investors are still hesitating about whether to buy the dip. The gap is this big.

Smart money is quietly accumulating, while we're still debating whether to chase or not. A long position of 3500 ETH—this guy really dares to bet.
---
Staking HYPE lock-up, stacking long positions in ETH—this move clearly says "I'm bullish," nothing else.
---
Don't trade randomly in the bottom range; watch how big funds move, and you'll be spot on.
---
Pouring 12.5 million in and still daring to leverage—this confidence is no joke. If the downside is truly limited, a rebound will really happen.
---
Those still cutting losses now will probably regret it forever; smart money has already been lurking there.

Damn, this guy is really stacking ammunition. 12.5 million U says boom just like that. How big is his heart?
Wait, still daring to play HYPE staking? You must really believe in this ecosystem.
3,500 ETH long positions... Brother, are you going all-in on the rebound? That’s really bold.
Smart money is quietly bottoming out now, while we’re still debating whether it’s going up or down. We’re really just one level apart.
If this price level doesn’t hold, it’ll depend on how he stops the loss. Exciting.
But splitting into multiple entries is still a reliable strategy. Don’t get caught in a trap.

Hmm... this guy is really placing a bet. Investing 12.5 million and going straight into ETH long positions—how confident must he be?
Smart money is all in at the bottom, while we retail investors are still hesitating.
3500 ETH hanging here—if he wasn't confident about the market, who would dare to do this?
The move to stake HYPE doesn't look like that of a gambler; it seems more like someone getting things done.
The bottom can't be moved recklessly; missing the market is even more painful than losing money.
Such large long positions are basically paving the way for others, right?
Is it real? Entering with millions and still so calm? Luckily, I'm not a big player; I would have been scared to death.
The market sentiment has been digested, and I believe this judgment only half. But the builders are indeed slowly getting on board.

Damn, this move really has some substance. Smart money is truly different.
Throwing 3500 ETH in, this guy is really confident, betting that this is the bottom.
Staking hype and still daring to lock in, such confidence is not something everyone has.
Really? Or have we been cut again? Let's wait and see.
Friends still overtrading in the bottom zone, you really don't understand on-chain data.
Smart money is quietly building positions, retail investors are still hesitating whether to get in, and the gap is widening.
This guy's long positions are smashing, it feels like a market rebound is just around the corner.
Can't wait anymore, staggered entry needs to be arranged, don't regret it after the gains come.

Alright then, it's another story of big funds bottoming out. I don't believe you, haha... But this MACD golden cross does have some significance, and I need to keep an eye on the 3190 support level.

1,250,000 U投入直接质押,这哥们儿真不是来短炒的,就是笃定后面要涨
3,500 ETH long positions stacked between 3190-3215, this signal is a bit fierce, smart money is waiting for a rebound
Bottom fishing can't be rushed, buying in batches is the right way, don't get caught
If this wave of panic is truly digested, the next step is to see if it can hold this position
Large funds dare to do this, probably have a long-term view on the ecosystem, betting on following the trend is definitely not that deep
