According to @OnchainLens, whale address 0xFB78AA8F38843629e89951D9db6FdC398d75e0A3 bought 10,000 ETH from Wintermute for a reported $26.36M, lifting its total to 120,169 ETH valued at $294.79M in staking. According to @OnchainLens, the continued accumulation and staking concentration by a single entity is a dynamic traders monitor for potential liquidity tightening and softer immediate sell pressure. According to @OnchainLens, the identified source and address enable traders to track subsequent on chain flows to assess near term impact on ETH liquidity and order book depth.

According to @OnchainLens, whale address 0xd4d56a30a4a745f8ba732e8b453b7066260fbc10 received an additional 445,000 HYPE (about $14.48M) from Galaxy Digital OTC, bringing total HYPE received via OTC to 1.355M (about $39.72M), with 465,000 HYPE (about $13.5M) already sent for staking, and the latest tranche likely to be staked as well (source: @OnchainLens). These on-chain inflows and staking movements, as reported by @OnchainLens, signal concentrated accumulation and potential reduction in immediately tradable supply, a flow traders can monitor for liquidity shifts (source: @OnchainLens).

According to @OnchainLens, Bitmine has staked an additional 314,496 ETH valued at about 887M USD, bringing its cumulative stake to 2,831,392 ETH valued near 7.98B USD, based on Arkham Intelligence entity data at intel.arkm.com/explorer/entity/bitmine (source: Onchain Lens on X; Arkham Intelligence). For traders, the key onchain datapoints are the incremental stake size and the updated total attributed to Bitmine’s staking addresses as recorded by Arkham Intelligence and relayed by Onchain Lens (source: Onchain Lens on X; Arkham Intelligence).

According to @OnchainLens, whale address 0xd4d56a30a4a745f8ba732e8b453b7066260fbc10 received another 445,000 HYPE (about $14.87M) from Galaxy Digital OTC and is likely to stake it. In total, the address has received 910,000 HYPE (about $25.43M) from Galaxy Digital OTC, with 465,000 HYPE (about $15.73M) already sent to a staking destination, per @OnchainLens. These on-chain flows reflect ongoing accumulation and staking activity tied to Galaxy Digital OTC transfers, as reported by @OnchainLens.

According to @CryptoMichNL, $NAORIS is holding a crucial support level in current conditions, with mainnet approaching and a core value proposition in quantum security (source: @CryptoMichNL on X). Per @NaorisProtocol, the project’s Sub-Zero Layer is a post quantum Layer 1 that anchors trust across L0–L3 and Web2 using post-quantum cryptography aligned with NIST, NATO, and ETSI and enforced via decentralized proof-of-security consensus (source: @NaorisProtocol on X). @NaorisProtocol reports testnet metrics including 105M+ post quantum transactions, 600M+ threats mitigated, 3.3M+ secured wallets, and 1M+ active security nodes, and says mainnet will open participation for developers, enterprises, exchanges, DeFi protocols, and validators, with $NAORIS powering validation, staking, and rewards (source: @NaorisProtocol on X). @NaorisProtocol also cites industry moves such as a post-quantum security team at the Ethereum Foundation and a quantum advisory board at Coinbase, alongside growing government funding for quantum research, as drivers for adoption of quantum-safe infrastructure (source: @NaorisProtocol on X). From a trading perspective, defended support plus an imminent mainnet and a strengthening post quantum narrative are near-term catalysts to monitor, while a break below the cited support would weaken the setup (sources: @CryptoMichNL and @NaorisProtocol on X).

According to @OnchainLens, whale address 0x0C4 received 29,665 ETH from OKX and now holds 44,774 ETH, while a separate ETH staker withdrew 3,207 ETH from Gemini for staking, source: @OnchainLens (Arkham explorer links referenced). Per @OnchainLens, these on-chain transactions reflect ETH accumulation and exchange outflows, source: @OnchainLens.

According to @santimentfeed, Ethereum has exceeded 175.5M non-empty addresses, the highest among all cryptocurrencies, highlighting broadening on-chain participation. According to @santimentfeed, strong staking interest during sideways conditions is reducing ETH on exchanges, implying tighter sell-side liquidity and a potential supply-side tailwind for traders monitoring spot liquidity.

According to Lookonchain, a whale spent 2.58M USDC to acquire 295,917 HYPE roughly 14 months ago and staked the tokens, with transactions visible on Hypurrscan at address hypurrscan.io/address/0x0cda7d72834bb6662ffa77cf8adf99eaea239302. According to Lookonchain, the whale has now unstaked and sold the entire position for 7.51M USDC, realizing about 4.92M in profit, which is corroborated by on chain transfers on Hypurrscan at the same address. According to Lookonchain, the unrealized profit at the peak exceeded 15M while the position was staked, as reflected by holdings tracked on Hypurrscan.

According to Onchain Lens, a whale deposited 665,035 HYPE valued at 14.54 million dollars into Bybit after initially buying 651,895 HYPE for 7.5 million dollars at 11.5 per token between Dec 3 and Dec 8, 2024, then staking the position, with wallet activity referenced via hyperbot.network and HyperEVMScan (source: Onchain Lens; hyperbot.network/trader/0xffe664491482ae9db6ba9e55c2ed1ea55c700a52; hyperevmscan.io/address/0xffe664491482ae9db6ba9e55c2ed1ea55c700a52). The exchange inflow to a destination identified as Bybit by Onchain Lens highlights a sizable tradable balance shift for HYPE on that venue that traders can verify directly through the linked address and transaction trail (source: Onchain Lens; hyperbot.network; hyperevmscan.io).

According to Lookonchain, the wallet degen-retard.sol withdrew 99,153 SOL from Binance at around $192 nearly two years ago and staked the assets (source: Lookonchain).

According to Lookonchain, despite almost two years of staking SOL, the position shows a loss of over $6.6 million (source: Lookonchain).

According to the source, a revised draft of the U.S. CLARITY Act allows stablecoin rewards tied to payments, staking services, and wallet usage while banning interest paid solely for passively holding tokens (source: U.S. Congress draft text, Jan 2026). For traders, the draft clarifies that compliant yield structures are activity-based rather than savings-like interest on idle stablecoin balances, affecting exchange, wallet, and DeFi program design if enacted (source: U.S. Congress draft text, Jan 2026). Under the draft, platforms would need to structure incentives around user actions and discontinue passive interest for simple holding to meet compliance upon enactment (source: U.S. Congress draft text, Jan 2026). Trading takeaway: prioritize activity-driven rewards over passive stablecoin interest when evaluating yield opportunities and monitor issuer and platform policy updates aligned to the draft’s requirements (source: U.S. Congress draft text, Jan 2026).

According to @OnchainLens, a single wallet deposited $3 million USDC into HyperLiquid and executed $2.78 million of buys for 108,501 HYPE at an average price of $25.63, while also holding 10,030 HYPE in staking, based on the X post dated Dec 30, 2025 and the linked wallet view at app.coinmarketman.com/hypertracker/wallet/0x4A96036FB1529561fA3eeEB2781Fad2D4F25500e. For traders, the $25.63 cost basis is an immediate reference level for potential support or resistance in HYPE order flow on HyperLiquid, grounded in the reported fill price and wallet data source: @OnchainLens and app.coinmarketman.com/hypertracker/wallet/0x4A96036FB1529561fA3eeEB2781Fad2D4F25500e.
