Whale Sells 4.2k stETH — Short-Term Weakness Signal

I noticed a whale abandoned the exit queue and sold 4,242.4 stETH for 4,231 ETH, choosing immediate liquidity over waiting. That behavior signals preference for ETH and creates near-term selling pressure on stETH.

I see this as a warning sign of short-term weakness in stETH relative to ETH, though the absolute size is moderate versus total market liquidity. I'll watch subsequent on-chain flows and order-book depth for confirmation before changing position size.

Recommendation

Watch on-chain flows and order books closely. Avoid initiating new long stETH positions until the discount stabilizes; consider trimming exposure if you hold stETH and the discount widens further.
