According to Lookonchain, a dormant crypto whale reactivated after four years, withdrawing $2.96 million USDC from Coinbase and transferring it to Hyperliquid. The whale then opened high-leverage short positions on ETH, PEPE, WIF, and OP, earning over $2.4 million in just four hours. This trading activity signals significant bearish sentiment and demonstrates that large capital movements to decentralized derivatives platforms can quickly impact market volatility and price direction for major altcoins and meme tokens. Traders should monitor whale wallet activity closely for early signals of rapid price movements. (Source: Lookonchain on Twitter, May 17, 2025)
