An Ethereum whale with over a decade of history liquidated 15,002 ETH, equivalent to approximately $30.97 million, through Coinbase. The transaction was detected by Lookonchain, an onchain analytics platform that identified the wallet as “0xa2F…F85A” and confirmed that the investor still holds around 14,814 ETH after the sale, according to Arkham data.
The wallet’s history reveals the scale of the accumulated return: the whale originally received 172,700 ETH approximately ten years ago, when each token traded at around $12.83, with a total value close to $2.2 million. At current prices, that original stash would be worth around $353 million.
In parallel, another heavyweight sold 5,000 ETH —close to $10.3 million— at $2,063 per unit, with the goal of partially repaying an active loan. According to Lookonchain, that same wallet holds around 126,000 ETH deposited in Aave, valued at approximately $257 million, and roughly $122 million in outstanding debt.
At the time of the whale transactions, Ethereum was trading lower, posting a 1.6% decline over the past 24 hours to $2,051, and has accumulated a drop of more than 50% from its all-time high of approximately $4,900, recorded in August 2025.
