As global financial markets brace for the outcome of the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting and a pivotal summit between US and Chinese leaders, the cryptocurrency sector is witnessing an assertive upswing led by heavyweight investors. Early in the trading week, market optimism gained momentum and, notably, crypto “whales”—holders with immense capital power—are making significant moves to amplify their influence on the digital asset landscape.
According to on-chain analytics published by Lookonchain, two prominent whale addresses initiated multimillion-dollar long positions in market bellwethers Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and a trio of altcoins. The whale identified as 0xc2a3, distinguished by a flawless win-rate record, recently expanded its exposure with a major BTC and ETH allocation. Today, it doubled down, adding to its ETH position with high conviction. Reported holdings now total 1,483 BTC (valued at $170.46 million) and 40,044 ETH (worth $167.35 million).
A second power player—whale address 0x71a0—is spreading its bets across ETH, Solana (SOL), and the speculative contenders PUMP and FARTCOIN. Strategic limit orders signal an intent to crystallize gains: targets for ETH range between $4,300 and $4,700, for SOL between $210 and $250, with PUMP positioned to capture momentum at $0.007 to $0.009, and FARTCOIN eyed for a breakout between $0.6 and $1.
These maneuvers highlight a risk-on pivot among institutional-style crypto investors, who appear unfazed by short-term policy uncertainty and motivated to ride the anticipated upside. For the broader community—traders, analysts, and fintech enthusiasts—the current momentum serves as a barometer of confidence, and a reminder that whale activity continues to shape price trajectories and market sentiment.
