$BTC On-chain monitoring shows that the ETH long position of the “whale who opened a short after the flash crash on October 11” has now exceeded 70,001.53 ETH (around $218M). Average entry: $3068.64 Current floating profit: $3.23M
This is the same whale who earned nearly $100M by positioning a $500M BTC short right before the October 11 drop. Their actions have been highly synchronized with policy shifts, drawing major market attention.
Now the whale has shifted to ETH long — the signal is clear.
In the past 12 months, the U.S. Treasury has issued a record $25.4 trillion in T-Bills (short-term zero-coupon bonds under one year), with total issuance reaching $36.6 trillion. T-Bills now make up 69.4% of all Treasury issuance — nearing historical highs.
What does this mean? The U.S. government is financing long-term debt with short-term debt, making public debt interest payments highly sensitive to Federal Reserve policy rates. If inflation rises and the Fed hikes rates again, interest costs will explode to unprecedented levels.
Macro risks are building — and the crypto market will feel it. Hurry up and cut interest rates!!
