[Ethereum Leverage Drama: Life or Death at the 2900 Support]
Last night, Ethereum staged a high-leverage thriller. A whale user on a major exchange held onto a long position at 25x leverage, with a 400 ETH holding that once approached a 210% unrealized loss. Even more crazy, after cutting losses and reducing 2786 ETH, this trader added back 1250 ETH, and in one night, $1.91 million disappeared from the screen.
Currently, the account still holds a long position of 3100 ETH, with liquidation at just 2900.1—walking a tightrope. When ETH suddenly dropped below 2870 this morning, it nearly triggered a panic, but this trader continued to buy in $2 million worth of ETH to hold the line. Now, there are $12.2 million in long positions dancing on the edge of a cliff, each candlestick heartbeat echoing the tension.
【Community Voices Split into Two Lines】
One side is shouting about the opportunity for explosive growth in the low Gas fee era; the other mocks this as "deleveraging," with rumors that the account has already cashed out $3 million.
【Tonight’s Two Battlefields】
ETH’s 2900 is the critical dividing line between bulls and bears. It could be the starting point for a whale’s turnaround or the trigger for a chain reaction of liquidations. Meanwhile, ZEC is also brewing under the surface ahead of the Federal Reserve’s non-farm payroll data release, as the seasonal trend of privacy coins approaches.
The question is: follow the trend or stay away? Is this bet a wager on a bull market revival, or just stubbornly fighting the bears, or is it a repositioning to catch new opportunities?

Uh... this guy is really trading with his life. Holding on with 25x leverage at 3100 coins, how big must his heart be? If 2900.1 breaks, he'll be liquidated immediately. Watching this, I can't help but feel nervous for him.

Wait, I need to check this account's wallet cluster... 3100 ETH suddenly replenished, can I trace the transfer hash? I have a feeling there's more to this behind the scenes, definitely some big players manipulating in the shadows.
---
The liquidation line at 2900.1 is too suspicious, precise to the decimal... Is this a coincidence or is someone deliberately setting a trap?
---
191 million USD disappeared overnight, but where did the rumor of cashing out 3 million come from? On-chain data doesn't match up.
---
This guy is really stubborn, or is someone backing him behind the scenes?
---
Is ZEC brewing before the non-farm payroll? The abnormal movement of privacy coins at this time is too suspicious, need to check large transfer records.
---
Feels like a show... Whales' actions are just setting traps for small investors.
---
Still alive with 25x leverage, there must be institutions supporting this account.
---
Follow the trend? Don't even think about it, I've seen obvious bullish signals like this before.
---
Is 2900 really the dividing line? Or have the big players already laid out short positions here, waiting to trap the retail investors?

This whale is really trading with their life. How could I possibly compete with such a player?

Wow, this guy is really tough. He added another two million just to hold the 2900 line. That takes a huge heart.

I really don't understand this kind of 25x courage. 1.91 million was gone in just one night. How strong must that belief be? Haha
