Ethereum whale moves $159M in 1 mysterious transfer – Dump incoming?

Ethereum (ETH), a popular cryptocurrency, has recently been experiencing fluctuations in both its value and the behavior of its largest holders, known as "whales." These are individuals or entities that hold large quantities of ETH, typically over 1,000 ETH in their wallets. Over the past few months, despite ETH prices falling, whales have been accumulating more Ethereum. Contrary to the declining prices since February, when ETH was valued at around $2,700, the number of whale wallets sharply increased as the price tumbled down to $1,440 by mid-April. This suggests that whales were willing to sit on significant unrealized losses through most of the first and second quarters.
