$ETH A whale, inactive for three years, has staked 4,736 $ETH—valued at $19.84 million—with Kiln Finance, a leading Ethereum staking platform

Having accumulated these $ETH for $9.12 million four to five years ago when prices were around $1,926 per coin, the whale is now sitting on a $10.7 million profit with ETH trading at approximately $4,189

Staking with Kiln, which supports non-custodial Ethereum staking with 3–5% annual yields, suggests a long-term strategy to earn passive income, especially with the Fusaka upgrade boosting Ethereum’s staking appeal in November 2025.

What’s your take—is this whale locking in $ETH for steady staking rewards, or hedging against market volatility with a safe yield play?
