On January 21, Onchain Lens detected that a whale address 0xC45 withdrew 8,000 ETH (approximately $23.72 million) from Binance in a single transaction and quickly deposited it into Aave V3. This operation is a typical large transfer from "Exchange → DeFi," usually indicating that the whale prefers to control assets independently or is preparing to earn interest through lending, collateralized borrowing, or leverage on Aave.

Further investigation revealed that the whale holds a total of 21,220 ETH (about $62.87 million) across two wallets, making it a relatively large long-term ETH holder. The large withdrawal and entry into lending protocols may reflect confidence in ETH's medium to long-term prospects or strategic planning for upcoming market fluctuations.

On-chain data itself is public and verifiable, but the motives of whales still need to be judged in conjunction with market conditions. However, such actions are often seen as important signals for observing capital flow and large investor sentiment, warranting ongoing attention.
