It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single wallet in possession of a large fortune, must be in want of more Ethereum.
According to the reputable observers at Lookonchain, a most intriguing event has transpired: a wallet, born but yesterday, has found itself blessed—or dare I say, showered!—with the astonishing sum of 24,294 ETH tokens, tallying to a modest fortune of $86 million, all courtesy of FalconX, a brokerage of no small repute.
Meanwhile, yet another whale—one may imagine a creature of conspicuous girth and still more enviable luck—has acquired 15,627 ETH ($57 million) from an over-the-counter wallet that is, with utter transparency, “linked” to Galaxy Digital. How delightfully clandestine this sounds for a society purportedly based on ledgers and blockchains! 🧐
One can hardly ignore the prevailing sentiment: even when the markets suffer hysterics, the whales persevere, unshaken, amassing ETH with the sort of relish usually reserved for improper dancing at Netherfield.
15% correction (Or, Alas! How the Price is Fallen)
On the third of August, the price of ETH did descend most grievously to $3,354—the lowest, I dare say, since July 17. A decline of 15% in a single week! One must imagine the fainting couches at every drawing room from London to Pemberley being over-occupied.
The misfortune was aggravated, it appears, by the stock market’s poetic retreat, itself a result of uninspiring employment figures—so much for progress!
Yet, in spite of these distresses (which, if you are not a financier, might elicit little but a polite yawn), the whales’ enthusiasm for ETH appears to be unsinkable, like a certain cousin forever plotting his next visit.
SharpLink’s New EHT Purchase; or, The Young Gent with a Taste for Tokens
Setting aside the aforementioned aquatic mammals, we find further whispers in the social whirl: SharpLink Gaming, a company of youthful ambition, has secured an additional 18,680 tokens, valued at a not-inconsiderable $67 million.
The upstart, whose aspirations are nothing less than to become “Ethereum’s Strategy” (whatever a Regency lady might make of that!), thereby commands a purse containing a staggering $1.81 billion in ETH.
One wonders whether Mr. Darcy ever considered such investment opportunities—or would he, too, be “hodling”? 🕵️♂️💎
