Whale

In Web3, a Whale is an individual or entity that holds a massive quantity of a specific cryptocurrency, giving them the power to influence market prices through large trades.Whale Watching—tracking the on-chain movement of these large wallets—is a popular strategy for identifying accumulation or distribution phases. In 2026, "Institutional Whales" (such as sovereign wealth funds and corporate treasuries) have replaced early adopters as the primary market movers. This tag explores wallet tracking, liquidity impact, and whale sentiment analysis.

XRP flashes major buy signal after dumping over $26 billion in a week

XRP flashes major buy signal after dumping over $26 billion in a week

The post XRP flashes major buy signal after dumping over $26 billion in a week appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. XRP is showing signs of a potential recovery after one of its sharpest weekly declines in months. Over the past week, the cryptocurrency shed more than $26.45 billion in market capitalization, falling from $198.19 billion to $171.74 billion as of August 20. At press time, XRP was trading at $2.89, reflecting a 12% weekly decline and an additional 4% drop in the past 24 hours.  XRP one-week market cap chart. Source: CoinMarketCap Why XRP is crashing  The correction has raised doubts about the durability of XRP’s rally after losing the crucial $3 support amid broader market bearish sentiment. Whale activity has been a key driver of the downturn. In this case, wallets holding 10 million to 100 million tokens have offloaded 470 million since August 18, the largest distribution since July’s 660 million sell-off.  The latest wave of selling coincided with XRP slipping below $3, a level that has historically triggered 10% to 15% corrections, leaving the token vulnerable to further short-term weakness as large holders lock in profits. Regulatory uncertainty is adding to the pressure. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has delayed its ruling on pending XRP ETF applications until October 19, despite analysts earlier assigning a 95% probability of approval.  Meanwhile, Ripple’s pending banking license application, under review since July, has fueled additional investor caution. XRP buy signal However, technical signals suggest a possible rebound. According to analysis shared by Ali Martinez in an X post on August 20, the TD Sequential indicator on the daily chart has printed a “9” buy setup, a pattern often signaling potential trend reversals.  XRP price analysis chart.

BlackRock’s $548 Million BTC Dump Behind Market Crash?

BlackRock’s $548 Million BTC Dump Behind Market Crash?

The post BlackRock’s $548 Million BTC Dump Behind Market Crash? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The crypto market crashed following a selloff by institutional investors. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other top cryptos experienced a significant decline. Whales embark on selloffs to take profit and provide better buying opportunities. Crypto whales and institutional investors are on a selling spree, which is causing cryptocurrency prices to go down. A crypto user on X highlighted some parties involved in the ongoing crypto selloff, including those taking short positions and long trades that are being liquidated. That explains the market-wide pullback that cryptocurrencies have experienced in the past few days. Bitcoin led a market-wide price collapse Almost all the top cryptocurrencies, including BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, and ADA, experienced a significant price decline recently. Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, dropped to $112,702 on Tuesday, reflecting a 9.4% pullback from its all-time high of $124,517, achieved less than one week ago.  Related: Bitcoin Retail Sentiment Collapses; Is This the Contrarian Bottom for BTC? Ethereum made a 15% pullback after an impressive rally of over 127% in less than two months, while other altcoins, including XRP, SOL, and ADA, followed a similar pattern, pulling back significantly after making massive gains over a short period. A typical whale behavior by BlackRock According to the crypto user, a cascade of liquidations of long positions caused the sharper drop in crypto prices. He noted that BlackRock alone dumped $548 million worth of Bitcoin within a few hours, with more investors speculating on a price increase, forcing them to close their positions. He further noted that traders shorted and liquidated long contracts, pressurizing crypto prices. The crypto user who highlighted the ongoing whale activities that led to the latest crypto market crash considers it a deliberate act by the big players. According to him, it is a typical approach that whales and institutional traders…

Trader Turns $125K Into $43M – Nearly Loses It All in ETH Crash

Trader Turns $125K Into $43M – Nearly Loses It All in ETH Crash

The post Trader Turns $125K Into $43M – Nearly Loses It All in ETH Crash appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ethereum One of crypto’s most talked-about traders saw fortunes swing violently this week after Ethereum’s price briefly slipped toward $4,000. The trader, who had grown a $125,000 stake into more than $43 million in just four months, was hit with a massive liquidation on decentralized exchange Hyperliquid. As ETH plunged, $6.2 million was wiped out, leaving the account with barely $770,000 — almost all of the meteoric gains gone in just two days. Blockchain tracker Lookonchain flagged the event, calling it one of the most dramatic reversals in recent memory. Other high-profile traders also felt the squeeze. Leveraged investor James Wynn, long known for aggressive Ethereum positions, saw his holdings slashed as well. Wynn admitted afterward that he had gone “all in” and would now have to cut back living expenses if the long-awaited altcoin season doesn’t materialize. The sudden downturn also spurred large whales into action. Several dumped positions, unloading a combined $147 million worth of Ether. Yet not everyone panicked. Data from Nansen shows opportunistic buyers stepping in, with some top traders snapping up multi-million-dollar sums of ETH at discounted levels. Even the notorious Radiant Capital exploiter’s wallet reportedly accumulated over $16 million worth during the dip. Markets are now looking beyond the chaos and toward Friday’s Jackson Hole address from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Analysts at Nexo argue that the next big move in crypto may depend less on chart patterns and more on signals from the Fed about interest rates and monetary policy.
