According to Michael Saylor on Twitter, no one has ever lost money buying Bitcoin (source: @saylor, May 21, 2025). However, historical Bitcoin price data shows that short-term traders have experienced losses during high volatility periods, especially those who bought near all-time highs before downturns (source: CoinMarketCap historical data). For traders, it is crucial to recognize that while Bitcoin has appreciated significantly over the long term, timing and strategy remain essential to avoid realized losses. Monitoring entry points, market cycles, and risk management is vital for profitable trading, as proven by past bear markets impacting leveraged and short-term positions.

According to Lookonchain, two major whales collectively sold 765,128 TRUMP tokens, valued at $8.58 million, incurring a combined loss of $2.34 million just 5 hours ago. Wallet 3kjP9L, which previously gained $196,000 from TRUMP trades, sold 337,560 tokens for $3.81 million with a realized loss of $1.38 million. Similarly, wallet 7X6Vun, with a prior profit of $732,000 on TRUMP, sold 427,568 tokens for $4.77 million, taking a $961,000 loss. This significant sell-off by experienced traders signals increased bearish sentiment and could add downward pressure on $TRUMP price in the short term. Traders should closely monitor TRUMP volatility and whale movement for further trading opportunities. (Source: Lookonchain, Twitter, May 4, 2025)

According to Lookonchain, a whale has sold 274,188 SOL, valued at $29.64 million, over the past three days, averaging a sell price of $108 per SOL. This comes after the whale withdrew SOL from OKX seven months ago at $148 each, resulting in a significant loss of nearly $11 million. These large-scale transactions could influence the Solana market, prompting traders to closely monitor further whale activities and market responses.

According to Ai 姨 (@ai_9684xtpa), a PEPE whale, known for a 100% success rate in swing trading, has increased their holdings despite incurring significant losses.
