According to @OnchainLens, a whale withdrew 48,744 SOL, worth about $6.15M, from OKX and sent the funds to staking, with the wallet activity visible on Solscan for address GcJFx1MZJ8Zn7PwtRprnzrXz4NyApdm16yAkCFQ4JvG. @OnchainLens adds that since August 22, 2025, this wallet has withdrawn and staked a cumulative 1,231,861 SOL, initially valued at $186.09M and currently worth $155.68M, reflecting an unrealized loss of $30.4M, corroborated by the transaction history on Solscan. Based on those figures reported by @OnchainLens, the implied average entry is approximately $151.06 per SOL and the current implied valuation is about $126.38 per SOL, a drawdown of roughly 16.3%, which aligns with the pricing implied by the latest 48,744 SOL move shown on Solscan. The transfer also removes 48,744 SOL from OKX order books for this wallet while staked, as indicated by @OnchainLens and the staking transactions recorded on Solscan.
