Bitcoin (BTC) started the last week of 2025 by rising above $90,000, but then retreated slightly.

While the price continues to fluctuate between $84,000 and $90,000, whales remain active.

Whales continue to buy, with purchases including Bitcoin, Ethereum (ETH), and altcoins.

According to a post by the cryptocurrency analysis platform Onchain Lens, institutional Chinese whale Trend Research purchased an additional 16,078 ETH worth $48.12 million from Binance today. They now hold a total of 607,828 ETH, valued at $1.78 billion.

Two newly created wallets purchased Bitcoin from Binance. According to the data, the two new wallets bought 1,600 BTC worth $143.6 million from Binance.

A large whale, however, spent $2.66 million in the last two days and bought 8.58 million FARTCOINs.

Another whale bought 2,218 ETH worth $6.52 million, 37.1 million SKY worth $2.36 million, and 4,772 AAVE worth $730,000 from Kraken. This same whale also bought 519 ETH from Wintermute 19 days earlier. In total, the whale holds 2,738 ETH (worth $8.07 million).

Whales are making long/short trades in addition to spot purchases. Accordingly, a whale opened a long position for the altcoin LIT via Hyperliquid.

Accordingly, the giant whale sent 1.8 million USDC to the decentralized futures exchange Hyperliquid and opened a 3x long position for LIT.

In response, a whale named “Neoyokio.eth” (“0x350”) invested 2 million USDC in HyperLiquid and opened a short position on ZEC with 2x leverage.
