The Ethereum leveraged position expanded after another 32 million USDT loan was used to acquire 18,994.5 ETH, bringing the average purchase price to about $1,704.
A crypto whale expanded a leveraged Ethereum bet by borrowing another 32 million USDT on Aave and using it to buy 18,994.5 ETH, lifting the day's cumulative borrowing to 76.42 million USDT and total purchases to 44,845 ETH. The average entry price across the position was about $1,704 per token. The latest update, flagged by on-chain analyst Ember, shows the whale significantly increased an already large leveraged ETH position financed through decentralized lending, underscoring the risk that a sharp decline in Ether could bring the position closer to liquidation.
