Big players have been active recently. Nearly 30 million USD worth of positions have started to exit in batches, with 2,450 ETH already sold and another 8,800 ETH still locked in the account—this seasoned trader is clearly selling as the price rises, taking profits along the way.

Interestingly, the average entry price was $3,145, and now they are both selling and placing limit orders. The signals from this strategy are very clear: still optimistic about the market, but greed must be kept in check. Lock in the confirmed gains first.

Honestly, this isn't panic selling. On-chain activity remains strong, and liquidity is always the key factor. Trading requires understanding the rhythm; reducing positions in stages is a skill for survival. Holding onto core positions without risking your entire fortune—that's the real long-term strategy.

What do you think? Is there still room for this round? Drop your thoughts in the comments.👇

This guy plays it safe, entering at such a low price and already making a fortune. Now he still dares to place limit orders, which shows he's really not worried.

This guy is really an artist. Selling while rising is like Van Gogh selling paintings in installments, but at least he’s still alive today. According to the supply and demand curve, this wave of selling actually proves that liquidity confidence is still there. — Schrödinger’s big player, both selling and optimistic, perfectly embodies the philosophy of a bear market. I just want to know if that 8800 tokens is a psychological price point. — I agree that it’s not panic dumping. This is called living with rhythm. By the way, still placing limit orders, which shows this guy is actually betting on what comes next. — Throwing out 2450 tokens is truly smart. Resisting greed is more scarce than the courage to go all in. This is the secret for a few people to survive longer in the Web3 era. — What’s called phased position reduction is, in less nice terms, being afraid of the cold at high places. But I have to admit, this strategy indeed results in a slower death than full-on all-in.

I should have known to run in batches like him; greed really can be deadly.

This guy really understands the rhythm, taking what he should and then running, while the rest continue to wait for the price to go up. Now that's a truly rare way to play.

Bro, I see through this move. It's like wanting to take profits but afraid of getting caught in a dip—classic smart person play. Tossed 2450 coins and still kept 8800; the timing is impeccable.

This guy knows his stuff. Selling gradually while the price is rising is truly the mindset of an old hand, much better than holding on tightly to a losing position.

Sold and it still went up, how to deal with it? It's even more frustrating than losing money.

This guy knows his stuff, unlike some people who go all-in and just wait to die. Selling gradually while it rises is indeed stable. I like to see this kind of move; it shows they're not crazy yet.
