Ethereum OG Wallets Add 45,319 ETH With Aave Looped Borrowing On Chain Leverage Signal ETH USDT

According to @lookonchain, two Ethereum wallets dormant for about five years deposited 44,490 ETH into Aave and borrowed 104M USDT to buy 45,319 ETH at an average price near 2,295, indicating a leveraged looped borrowing accumulation strategy, source: @lookonchain. The specific deposit, borrow, and swap transactions are visible for the reported addresses via Arkham Intelligence, confirming the sequence of Aave collateralization followed by ETH purchases, source: Arkham Intelligence via @lookonchain. This setup increases net long ETH exposure using collateralized loans and subjects positions to liquidation if the health factor falls as ETH price declines, consistent with Aave risk and liquidation mechanics, source: Aave documentation. Increased USDT borrowing raises Aave stablecoin utilization, which mechanically lifts variable borrow rates and funding costs for leveraged looped positions, source: Aave interest rate model documentation.
