【Chain News】In the past few hours, large ETH transfers have appeared on the blockchain. According to on-chain data monitoring, two wallets (suspected to belong to a major investment institution and a stablecoin protocol) deposited a total of 3,956 ETH into Coinbase and Binance seven hours ago, worth approximately $13.24 million. At the same time, a well-known venture capital fund withdrew 5,500 ETH from Coinbase, about $18.51 million. This series of actions reflects different attitudes among institutions toward the current market—some are reducing their positions and selling, while others are buying against the trend. Institutional flows of ETH have always been a focus of market attention, and such large transfers often signal a turning point in market sentiment.

Fear of reducing positions, genuine funds buying against the trend... This wave of divergence is too obvious.

ngl the real play here is watching who's actually accumulating vs who's just hedging their bags. everyone acts like these flows matter but empirically speaking it's just institutions playing both sides... as predicted lol

Reducing positions and bottom fishing happening simultaneously? Is this time to dump the market or reverse? Let's see who has more chips in hand.

Buying 5,500 units against the trend? This guy must be very optimistic. I have to follow and copy his homework.

Some are buying the dip, while others are fleeing... This is what you call information asymmetry, haha.

Selling, buying, and selling again, these institutions really know how to perform... But the guy who is buying against the trend, we'll have to see if he can keep buying all the way through.
