According to IntoTheBlock, there has been a slight delay in some liquidations on Aave and Spark over the past week. This delay is potentially due to lower DEX liquidity for certain ETH Liquid Staking Tokens (LSTs) and Liquid Restaking Tokens (LRTs), as highlighted in their recent analysis.

According to EmberCN, a whale/institution that accumulated 2.248 million UNI and 142,000 AAVE since 2023 has transferred all 2.248 million UNI ($13.71M) to Kraken within the past half hour. The whale had an average purchase price of $6.91 per UNI, with unrealized profits peaking at $26.38 million. The current price drop has led to speculation about potential liquidation.

According to Lookonchain, a whale sold 25,800 ETH ($47.8M) at a loss exceeding $32M to prevent liquidation. The whale still holds 35,034 ETH ($64.68M) on Aave, with a health rate of 1.4 and a liquidation price around $1,316. This move highlights the risks of leveraged positions in volatile markets.

According to The Data Nerd, a whale identified as 0x25D withdrew 50 WBTC (~$4.06M) from Binance and supplied it into AAVE. Following this, the whale supplied an additional 251 WBTC and 40 cbBTC (~$33.95M) into AAVE and borrowed 12M USDC and USDT. This pattern suggests a strategy to leverage assets for further accumulation of WBTC.

According to Santiment, there has been a notable increase in $100K+ whale transactions for several altcoins as the week concludes. AAVE on Polygon saw a 267% rise, HEX experienced a 256% increase, and OKB recorded a 200% surge in such transactions. This indicates heightened activity and interest from major investors in these cryptocurrencies.

According to MilkRoadDaily, $AAVE has experienced a significant price increase due to two key factors: the announcement of a weekly $1M buyback program for at least 6 months and the initiation of a revenue-sharing model with $AAVE holders, leveraging Aave's monthly fee generation of $25-$90M. These developments are seen as bullish indicators for $AAVE's market performance.

One whale, identified by the address ending in 3d12, borrowed 19.3M $USDT to acquire 8,397 $ETH at $2,300 each. Another whale, with an address ending in 6de5, borrowed 7.08M $USDT to buy 3,074 $ETH at $2,304 each. These transactions indicate a strong buying interest in $ETH at these price levels.
