COINOTAG, citing Coinbob Popular Address Monitor on December 11, notes the ETH price briefly dipping near $3,175 before rebounding. The BTC OG Insider Whale address (0xb31) carried a substantial ETH long—roughly $383 million—with an average entry near $3,177, a liquidation price of $2,235, and an intraday unrealized gain of about $25.3 million at 4:00 AM.

Transfers show a $70 million move from a Binance wallet to Hyperliquid between Dec 7–8, followed by opening a 5x leveraged ETH long at about $3,048, and a further $50 million added the next day, highlighting meaningful on-chain liquidity shifts and reinforced ETH exposure.

Historically, the address, an OG BTC holder with thousands of BTC, has rotated into ETH. Ahead of the 10.11 crash, it reportedly built a large BTC short near $500 million, generating notable gains; BitForex CEO Garrett Jin links the address to certain clients.
