Market Turbulence Hits Smart Traders: Whale Suffers $15.7M Loss

A whale who had previously excelled in Ethereum trades, earning a staggering $38M (+26.7%) from November 2022 to May 2024, has now suffered a significant loss.

The whale deposited 8,825 $ETH ($24.1M) to Binance, leaving behind 10,619 $ETH ($28.5M) with an estimated total loss of $15.7M (-23%) from their ongoing third Ethereum trade.

Regrettably, the whale missed the August 5 crash, which would have mitigated the loss. This setback highlights the unpredictable nature of the cryptocurrency market, where even experienced traders can face significant losses.
