OG whale โ€œGarrett Bullishโ€ has reportedly deposited another: ๐Ÿ”ถ 78,077 $ETH
๐Ÿ”ถ worth around $177.9M
๐Ÿ”ถ directly into Binance

And naturally, the market is asking again:

โžก๏ธ Is more selling coming?

This matters because large whale inflows to exchanges usually trigger fear across the market.

Historically:
โ–ซ๏ธ exchange deposits increase sell-side speculation
โ–ซ๏ธ traders expect potential distribution
โ–ซ๏ธ market sentiment weakens quickly

Especially after the recent:
โš ๏ธ $393M ETH transfer
โš ๏ธ weaker ETH momentum
โš ๏ธ fragile market structure
โš ๏ธ ongoing volatility

another massive deposit immediately grabs attention.

However, traders should avoid emotional conclusions too early.

Not every exchange transfer automatically means:
โ–ซ๏ธ aggressive dumping
โ–ซ๏ธ immediate market collapse
โ–ซ๏ธ large-scale selling pressure

Whales sometimes move funds for:
๐Ÿ”ถ liquidity management
๐Ÿ”ถ collateral positioning
๐Ÿ”ถ OTC activity
๐Ÿ”ถ portfolio restructuring

Still, perception matters heavily in crypto.

And right now, Ethereum sentiment remains sensitive.

ETH is already facing:
โ–ซ๏ธ weaker performance against BTC
โ–ซ๏ธ resistance around key levels
โ–ซ๏ธ unstable leverage conditions
โ–ซ๏ธ cautious institutional positioning

That means even rumors of whale selling can pressure short-term sentiment quickly.

Another key factor is market absorption.

If buyers absorb the supply successfully:
๐Ÿ”ถ it may actually show hidden demand strength
๐Ÿ”ถ panic sentiment could fade
๐Ÿ”ถ short squeezes may follow afterward

But if selling pressure increases aggressively:
โš ๏ธ volatility may spike
โš ๏ธ longs could get trapped
โš ๏ธ liquidation pressure may accelerate

This is why reaction matters more than the transfer itself.

Right now, traders should watch:
โ–ซ๏ธ price reaction โ–ซ๏ธ spot demand โ–ซ๏ธ ETF flows โ–ซ๏ธ support retention

instead of reacting emotionally to headlines alone.

Massive whale deposits always create fear โ€” but whether this becomes real sell pressure depends entirely on how the market absorbs it.

OTC large orders moving to exchanges? I have doubts about this logic; let's wait for the subsequent fund flow data.

Institutions are now very cautious with their positions. If this level of selling pressure really comes out, it will hit 1600.

Short-term sentiment will definitely collapse, but the key is whether it can be caught; catching it means a bear trap.

Whatโ€™s the recent ETH/BTC exchange rate like? Are the whales still sending tokens to exchanges? Those in the know understand.

Every time this kind of news comes out, the long-short ratio of the contract first becomes unbalanced, then the big players take advantage of retail investors. It's an old script.

Don't rush to FOMO; large holders transferring coins to exchanges aren't necessarily selling, they might be borrowing coins to leverage.

After 393M, another 178M came in. Can ETH's resilience withstand such turbulence?

Garrett Bullish is quite ironic; his actions are not bullish at all.
