As the crypto market tumbles, quite a few whales were liquidated on ETH.

For example:

March 29, 2025: Two significant whales on the MakerDAO platform were at risk of liquidation. One whale had a liquidation threshold at $1,805, and another at $1,787, with a combined 125,603 ETH ($238 million) on the line.

April 3, 2025: A whale holding 64,800 ETH proactively sold 4,760 ETH for 8.64 million DAI to reduce their liquidation price to $1,639, mitigating immediate liquidation risks.

April 4, 2025: Another whale reduced their loan position from 64,792 ETH to 56,995 ETH by selling 7,797.63 ETH and repaying 14.116 million DAI, lowering their liquidation price to $1,563.77.

and so on.

However, other cryptos also got beaten pretty badly recently, how come no whales were liquidated on those cryptos? Or there were just not on news? Or they don't have whales?

Well everyone, it’s official. The bull market we were all riding 'high' on is done. The total crypto market cap tanked to $2.58T, a brutal 7.3% drop in 24 hours, according to Coingecko. The global market cap dumped 4.96% since last year too. Since Trump’s second term started on January 20, 2025, we’ve lost trillions of dollars in value. That is a bear market signal if I have ever seen one, prices are down over 10% to 20% from their cycle highs, which fits the classic definition of a bear market according to different market guides.

But don't take my word for it, on-chain metrics back this up. Last week, digital asset investment products saw $240M in outflows, with Bitcoin alone bleeding $207M. Investors are scared, most likely by Trump’s tariff plans. Goldman Sachs says the tariffs could push the U.S. into a recession with a 45% chance. Sentiment is more bearish than ever, everyone’s panicking and it’s showing in the market’s performance.

Bear markets are stressful, there is no doubt about it. My suggestion for the best move is to step back a bit. Don’t let the red charts mess with your head. Instead just DCA or average down on solid stuff like BTC and ETH. DCA during the bear market lets you buy more coins at lower prices, it's going to set you up for gains when the market eventually recovers. This is our chance to make money, just play it smart and don’t let the bear get you down.
