According to @cas_abbe, Ethereum’s unstaking queue is at a record high while ETH ETFs are seeing record inflows, indicating DeFi users are de-risking as institutions buy ETH (source: @cas_abbe). According to @cas_abbe, this flow divergence suggests supply is rotating from on-chain staking to ETF vehicles, so traders should track net staking withdrawals versus ETF share creations to gauge the balance of flows (source: @cas_abbe). According to @cas_abbe, traders can also watch exchange ETH balances and staking-derivative pricing to assess whether ETF demand is offsetting DeFi outflows (source: @cas_abbe).

According to @lookonchain, BtcTurk was hacked for more than $48 million in crypto assets. According to @lookonchain, the attacker is actively swapping the stolen funds into ETH on-chain. According to @lookonchain, the wallets linked to the exploit are 0x0fe41fe8786329fb6bd8f2baa73aa55e770f0951, 0xa041feb3a8297c5689fee180083164a061a17fd6, and 0x7D91D1ebeBA91257733a523409125aEdac5d8b6E. According to @lookonchain, this update was posted on August 14, 2025, enabling traders to follow further ETH swap activity directly from these addresses.

According to @lookonchain, address 0x46DB sold 5,504 ETH for $19.81M at $3,599 during the drop, based on Arkham Intelligence on-chain explorer data. According to @lookonchain, the same address later bought back 3,358 ETH for $12.85M at $3,828 as ETH rebounded, with the on-chain reference attributed to Arkham Intelligence. According to @lookonchain, the address remains net -2,146 ETH versus its pre-sale position using the quantities reported from Arkham Intelligence. According to @lookonchain, the repurchase price was $229 per ETH above the reported sale price, implying roughly $768,982 in additional cost on the 3,358 ETH that were repurchased, derived from the Arkham-referenced figures.
