<p>Since last week, Bitcoin has been trying to recover after dipping to $58,562. Although it nearly reached $63,976 on July 1, increased selling pressure and continued selling of Bitcoin by the German government forced its price <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/why-is-bitcoin-price-down-today-came-back-to-60700/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">back down to $60,490</a>, reflecting a 3.6% drop.</p> 
<p>On Wednesday, a prominent crypto whale or institutional investor sold millions of dollars worth of LDO, AAVE, UNI, and FXS at a loss, causing a significant decline in the prices of these major tokens.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-major-sell-off-causes-price-drops">Major Sell-Off Causes Price Drops</h2> 
<p>According to a report by the leading blockchain analytical platform Lookonchain, a major whale or institution sold 3.13 million LDO tokens worth $5.77 million, 49,771 AAVE tokens worth $4.54 million, 269,177 UNI tokens worth $2.41 million, and 250,969 FXS tokens worth $708,000.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, these sales were made at a loss, and as a result, the prices of these tokens saw a noticeable decline.</p> 
<p>Meanwhile, this whale had spent over $73 million to buy Ethereum (ETH) and various tokens within the <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/is-altcoin-season-on-the-horizon-heres-what-analyst-weighs-in/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ethereum ecosystem</a> after the SEC approved form 19b-4 for an ETH ETF at the end of May. Despite today’s significant sell-off, the whale still holds 3.33 million LDO tokens worth $5.83 million and 31,191 AAVE tokens worth $2.8 million.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-profit-and-loss-analysis">Profit and Loss Analysis</h2> 
<p>Despite the losses from the recent sales, the whale’s overall trading activities have made a total profit of $2.87 million. The breakdown of these figures shows a profit of $7.29 million on ETH. In contrast, there were losses of $3.23 million on LDO and $1.1 million on AAVE.</p>
