Major Trader Swaps 275 BTC for 6.8K ETH, Shifts to Aave V3 Lending Strategy
According to Onchain Lens data, a significant whale activity was captured over the past week. The trader executed a notable portfolio rebalance, liquidating 275 BTC (worth approximately $30.5 million at execution prices) while simultaneously bought 6,802.7 ETH at around $4,482 per token.
The capital reallocation signals an interesting shift in the whale’s investment thesis. Rather than holding the position in Bitcoin alone, the trader converted a substantial portion of holdings into Ethereum and immediately supplied the entire ETH position into Aave V3, utilizing it as collateral for lending protocols.
This move suggests the whale is pursuing yield-generating strategies through DeFi lending markets. By depositing ETH into Aave V3, the trader gains access to lending rewards while maintaining exposure to Ethereum’s ecosystem. With current ETH trading near $2.98K and BTC hovering around $88.3K, such rebalancing decisions often reflect whale perspectives on relative risk-reward between the two leading blockchain assets.
The transaction demonstrates how institutional-level investors are increasingly integrating DeFi protocols into their treasury management strategies, using decentralized lending platforms as both yield optimization tools and liquidity sources.
