This report summarizes 24 hours of Ethereum whale activity from 20,000+ tracked wallets. Data covers DEX swaps across Uniswap V2/V3, CoW Protocol, 1inch, and other major DEXs, plus CEX deposit/withdrawal flows. Volume excludes stablecoins, wrapped assets, and synthetic tokens. Figures cover tracked whale wallets only. Exchange withdrawals and DEX buys count as accumulation-side flow; exchange deposits and DEX sells count as distribution-side. Most whale flow is exchange transfers, not DEX trades, so a withdrawal is a custody move, not an observed purchase. Not financial advice — past whale activity is not predictive of future results.
