Ethereum whales have recently shown a clear divergence. An old whale holding positions for over 5 years recently significantly reduced their holdings, selling off 40,200 ETH in one go, with a transaction volume of up to $124 million. Meanwhile, on the other side of the market, another group of "smart money" quietly accumulated at the 3050 level, acting in remarkably coordinated moves. Even more interesting is that the Ethereum staking queue has recently surged, with the total staked amount breaking through $5.5 billion.
The logic behind this series of actions is worth pondering. What does the choice of the old whale represent? Is it a signal of a market top, or just a repositioning? And when prices are under pressure, some are still willing to buy, what are these latecomers' judgments based on? Does the growth in staking data indicate that someone is betting on a rebound after a dip? Whether the key support at 3050 can hold will determine the subsequent direction.

The old whale has run away, and smart money is bottom-fishing. I've seen this script before... The key is whether 3050 can hold, otherwise it's all just paper wealth.

Old whales run away, new rookies take over, this script is all too familiar.

Bro, this wave of divergence is pretty interesting. The 5-year-old big whale just ran away with 124 million. Who dares to buy the dip at 3050 next? I really can't figure out what this group of smart money is thinking.
---
The 5.5 billion lock-up scale—what does that mean? Are they betting on a rebound or just plain reckless?
---
Wait, is a whale reducing their holdings a top signal? It doesn't seem that simple...
---
If the key support can't hold, it'll be disastrous. Don't cry then.
---
I'm actually a bit worried about the surge in staking data. Feels like someone is laying the groundwork.
---
Throwing out 40,200 coins all at once? That must take some desperation.
---
As for smart money taking over, I bet these people are either experts or bagholders.
---
Is 3050 really the bottom? I don't understand.
---
Old whales leave, new whales come in—it's an endless cycle.

I'm just laughing if the old whale runs away. Is this really a top signal? But 3050 is still holding firm, indicating there are still people betting on a rebound below. It's also crazy that staking data is rising so sharply.
