DeFi whale withdraws 19,300 ETH at $2304, deposits into etherfi for yields, eyes $570k profit on Binance reload amid ETH price surge to $2396.93.

According to PeckShieldAlert, an Aave whale address 0xdaf5...3f55 was liquidated for 7.83 million USD amid a continued market downturn, bringing total liquidations tied to the wallet to roughly 9 million USD; the position was long WBTC used as collateral to borrow USDT (source: PeckShieldAlert). The liquidation follows Aave’s process where liquidators repay the borrower’s USDT debt and receive WBTC collateral at a discount, which can add near-term sell pressure to WBTC markets during deleveraging phases (source: Aave Protocol Docs). The event underscores active deleveraging risk for WBTC-backed loans on Aave during price drawdowns, relevant for traders tracking on-chain liquidity and liquidation cascades (source: PeckShieldAlert; source: Aave Protocol Docs).
