An Ethereum whale just took a $20M hit on their long position—and honestly, that's wild to think about. For most people, that kind of money would be a lifetime of security. Yet for these mega-holders, it barely registers as a blip on the radar. They're moving positions that make ordinary traders' portfolios look like spare change. The gap between whale-level and retail participation in ETH is just on another level entirely.

A 20M loss is like losing a hair for whales... No one cares if our retail bottom-fishing results in total loss.

20M liquidation? Do big players all operate so casually... I need to do a reverse trade.

20M is just a drop in the bucket, really outrageous. We're not even a fraction of that.

A 20M loss is really just a drop in the bucket for whales; retail investors will never make that much money in their lifetime.

nah this is exactly why governance attacks work so well—whales eating losses while retail gets liquidated, perfect recipe for protocol instability tbh

Spend 20M without blinking an eye; the money retail investors worry about all day is just pocket change to them.

A 20M loss really isn't a big deal for whales... As retail investors, it just makes us heartbroken to watch.
