 <p><em>“This whale sold all 10,701 ETH ($33 million) on Binance to repay debt two hours ago, losing more than $4 million again!</em></p>

EigenLayer is a restaking protocol built on ETH.</p>
 <p>The other whale withdrew 5,282 ETH worth $48.2 million from the crypto exchanges Binance and OKX on Monday.</p>
