An Ethereum whale who held 10,000 ETH for nearly 900 days has sold their entire position, missing out on a potential peak profit of $27.6 million.<\/span><\/p>\n

The investor <\/span>originally<\/span> acquired the Ether in October and November 2022 across two transactions totaling $13 million, paying an average of $1,295 per token, according to<\/span> blockchain analytics platform Lookonchain<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite Ether soaring above $4,000 in late 2023, the whale did not exit at the peak. Instead, the sale was made on April 8 at approximately $1,578 per ETH, netting a profit of just $2.75 million. <\/span><\/p>\n
