On Christmas Day, an on-chain whale quietly built a position. Address 0xDBc...F651F spent $8.78 million on December 25, 2025, sweeping in 3,000 ETH in one go, with the purchase price at about $2,927 per ETH. Perhaps due to holiday luck, this move ultimately turned into a profitable trade. In just three weeks, the whale took profits. An hour ago, he transferred all 3,000 ETH to a major exchange, at which point the ETH price had risen to around $3,102. At this price, the total value of the 3,000 ETH approached $9.31 million. A simple calculation shows that from building the position to preparing to close, the unrealized profit on this trade has reached $525,000. For a three-week swing trade, this return is quite impressive. The actions of such whales often reflect subtle market changes. When you see whales depositing large amounts into exchanges, it usually indicates they are preparing for the next move—whether to cash out or to capitalize on the trend. This time, it looks like a standard profit-taking move.

On Monday, Bitcoin consolidates and surges higher in the short term, with the target set at 95,000 Bitcoin closed the weekend with volatility. Currently, it has stabilized above the 90,000 level. Today, it opened higher and continued to rise, with the bulls further gaining dominance. As many know, I have been bullish and optimistic recently. Although the process has been bumpy, it does not affect my judgment and layout of the major trend in the first quarter of 2026. The daily chart shows consecutive positive candles with oscillation adjustments. In the short term, it is gathering strength to surge higher. The length of the horizontal movement and the height of the vertical movement are both significant. If there is another rebound and upward movement, the first resistance level to watch is around the previous high of 95,000. Breaking this level could lead to an attack on 100,000. If it fails to break, it will face resistance and pull back for further weak correction. Currently, follow the trend and adjust based on the resistance test in the future. Bitcoin: Suggest buying in the 90300-90800 range, with a target of 93500. Reduce positions if broken and aim for a push towards 95000. Ethereum: Suggest buying in the 3090-3110 range, with a target of 3200. Reduce positions if broken and aim for a push towards 3285. A seasoned veteran of eight years, a witness to the alternation of bull and bear markets, I prefer to walk with the light rather than fight alone. Buddha guides those with fate, only waiting for the dedicated.
