Smart Money Opens $21.3M 25x ETH Long at $4,740 — Short-Term Bullish but Risky
I note that on August 14 on-chain data shows a trader with cumulative profits above $34.1M opened a 25x long on Ethereum, building a $21.3M position at an average entry of $4,740.31 within about 30 minutes.
This is a clear short-term bullish signal — such a large, high-leverage bet by “smart money” can drive momentum, but the 25x leverage greatly increases liquidation and volatility risk.
I will monitor price action, funding rates and orderbook depth; I won’t chase leveraged trades and would prefer smaller, staged exposure or wait for a retracement before adding risk.
Analysis
Recommendation
Watch price and funding closely; avoid chasing the leveraged move. If participating, use small, managed size or wait for a pullback or confirmation rather than entering into high-leverage exposure.
