$ETH In the past 24 hours, a whale executed a series of strategic trades, offloading 300,662 $UNI for 756 WETH ($3.19 million), securing a $895,000 profit, and 1,000 $AAVE for 72 WETH ($307,600).

They then pivoted, purchasing 2.31 million LDO for 738.85 WETH ($3.11 million) at $1.35 per token and 1.21 million $ENA for 220 WETH ($922,700) at $0.76 per token.

This shift from UNI and AAVE to LDO (Lido’s liquid staking) and $ENA (Ethena’s synthetic dollar protocol) suggests a bet on Ethereum’s DeFi ecosystem. With UNI trading at $10.61 and AAVE at $307.60, the whale capitalized on recent price strength, while $LDO and $ENA’s lower prices offer high-upside potential.

What’s your take—is this whale repositioning for a DeFi boom, or just chasing short-term gains in volatile tokens?
