ETH briefly dipped to $3,175 on Dec. 11 before rebounding, pushing the long position held by address 0xb31—dubbed the "BTC OG insider whale"—below its $3,177 average entry, Coinbob wallet tracking shows. The position, now valued at around $383M with a liquidation price at $2,235, had seen floating profit peak at $25.3M at 4:00 a.m. that day.

On December 11, a significant market event unfolded as the '1011 Insider Whale,' a prominent Ethereum investor, saw their massive $383 million (120,094 ETH) 5x leveraged long position dip into an unrealized loss. Following Ethereum's (ETH) price fall below the $3,200 mark, this position, which had previously yielded $16.8 million in unrealized profits, now registers a $200,000 unrealized loss. Despite this reversal, the whale has reportedly continued to accumulate ETH, pushing their average entry price to $3,177.89. This development underscores the inherent volatility in cryptocurrency markets and the high-stakes nature of leveraged trading, even for major players, while also signaling potential long-term conviction.
