On-chain data monitoring shows that a top address accumulated a large amount of WBTC over four days in late October this year. From October 22 to 26, this address bought a total of 264.86 WBTC on-chain at an average price of $113,012.84, with a total investment close to $30 million.
However, the story did not unfold as this major holder hoped. After waiting for three months, this address transferred all its WBTC to a major exchange just 4 hours ago, at a BTC price of $93,823. At this point, if they liquidate everything, they will face a loss of $5.082 million — the significant gap between the cost basis and the current price vividly reflects the intense volatility of the Bitcoin market during this cycle.
This operation also serves as a warning to market participants: even large holders' positions are not guaranteed to be profitable, as market conditions often change unexpectedly.

Haha, is this the legendary big investor's failed attempt at bottom fishing? Throwing in 30 million and ending up losing over 5 million, truly incredible.

Haha, pouring in 30 million USD and ending up losing over 5 million, this is the legendary big investor story.
It seems this guy didn't calculate it right either; holding for just three months resulted in this outcome. Truly a lesson learned.
On-chain big investors crashing indicates that everyone must follow the rules; there are no guaranteed profitable trades.
It's painful to watch; the fluctuations in this cycle are really outrageous.
So, no matter how much money you have, you can't withstand a market turnaround.
