Large holders are continuing to flee. The pace of whale de-risking doesn't seem to be slowing down, with continuous selling over several days. The behavior change of these large position holders often reflects a subtle shift in market sentiment. Whether they are adjusting their positions in advance or have concerns about the future market, further on-chain data observation is needed to make a judgment. However, this phenomenon of large position shrinkage is indeed worth noting for traders.

Research shows that the movements of large holders can indeed serve as a leading indicator of market sentiment. However, attention must be paid to the sample size issue—looking solely at consecutive days of selling behavior is not enough to draw conclusions. It should be combined with on-chain trading depth and the identity characteristics of trading counterparties. From a technical perspective, whale exits are essentially a liquidity issue. The real reason for price pressure is often not the selling itself but the purchasing power of the buyers stepping in. It is worth noting that the narrative of "large holders fleeing" can be easily overinterpreted. I recommend referencing on-chain data rather than market sentiment to make judgments. Hmm... The real question is whether these addresses called "whales" are actually institutions or retail investors. Data makes it difficult to distinguish between them. Overall, selling itself does not necessarily mean bearishness—perhaps they are just taking profits early, which does not necessarily reflect their attitude towards the future market.

Whale reducing positions? I'm the actual reverse indicator, big players run, I follow, and I always manage to perfectly step into the trap. I've calculated that as long as the holdings are shrinking, my account is expanding, expanding into a pile of zeros. I monitor on-chain data every day, and every time I do, I benefit more. That's called professionalism. How can there still be people listening to big players? Going against me is the right way. Whales are selling off, huh? Then I need to add more positions. Anyway, the liquidation price is just my target price.

Whale runaways are happening; you need to keep a close eye on on-chain data.
