Tom Lee has made a move again, this time directly sweeping up $150 million worth of ETH.



To be honest, this guy is pretty aggressive in his actions, but it also shows one thing—the die-hard believers in Ethereum haven't left yet. At least, there are still big players holding the line.

But then again, whether this wave can really gain momentum depends on three trends:

First, check if ETH is continuously flowing out of exchanges—the more outflows, the tighter the supply. Then, look on-chain to see if there's an equivalent amount of funds buying in, especially if they're moving directly to cold wallets for long-term holding. Lastly, watch the institutions—are their fund products seeing several consecutive days of net inflows, or is there any public news about increased holdings?

Only if all three signals align does it really have a shot.

Putting in 150 million is indeed aggressive, but just looking at the money being thrown in is useless—you have to see if others will follow. Exchange outflows, on-chain locking, and net institutional buying—if even one is missing, it’s all for nothing. I’ll wait until all three signals are there before jumping in, otherwise I’ll just end up as exit liquidity again. Can Tom Lee really get it right this time? I have my doubts. Is it true? If big money is propping up the market, why is it still dropping like this? Where are the so-called die-hard believers? Throwing in 150 million and still not pumping the price speaks volumes. I’d actually like to see if any major moves have happened in cold wallets lately—that’s the real proof of money on the table. Don’t just listen to the money being thrown in; you have to see if institutions are following. That’s the real dividing line.

150 million really got thrown in, this guy really isn’t afraid of anything. Exchange outflow looks okay, cold wallets are accumulating, and there are also buy signals from institutions. It really feels a bit different this time.

1.5 billion thrown in looks fierce, but is this guy just acting out of spite again? 2. With Tom Lee's move, I'll only believe it when the exchanges truly run dry. 3. Big V throwing money ≠ price will rise, you have to watch what the on-chain cold wallets are doing. 4. Here we go again with the three-signal theory. Makes sense, but hard to put into practice—who can really keep such a close watch all the time? 5. But then again, if he really locks up the chips this round, that would be interesting. 6. Institutional net buying + exchange outflows + cold wallet absorption—all three need to align for it to count. That's tough. 7. Just worried that after Tom Lee throws in, it's just another prelude to a round of retail fleecing. 8. Judging by this, there are still people who believe in ETH, but who can say how long that confidence will last? 9. You have to be pretty free to watch exchange data every day. Might as well just bet—either win or learn a lesson. 10. This analysis framework is pretty good, but most people can't even manage the first step.

He really dares to throw in 150 million, but there's a lot of hype too. The real indicator is the speed of exchange outflows; don't trust talk about cold wallet lock-up data.

$150 million in sweeping orders, is Tom trying to buy the dip or is he a true believer? Hard to tell. --- By the way, I’ve been closely monitoring exchange outflows. Today's numbers are pretty interesting. --- Just worried it’s another round of fake prosperity before institutions dump on retail. Seen this trick too many times. --- How many cold wallets are actually locked up? Most are just front-running wallets, don’t overthink it. --- Net fund purchases for three days in a row? Wake up, bro. Who actually dares to increase their position right now? --- This guy just loves creating hype. Too much money to burn, I guess. --- I bet five bucks the outflow data will get manipulated to create a false impression and lure in retail traders. --- Let’s wait and see. I’m not making any moves in the short term—let the dust settle a bit.

Damn, 150 million. This guy really isn't afraid—he's betting on a future none of us can understand.

150 million has been invested, Tom Lee is serious this time. Let’s see if he can push it up. Exchange outflows are a bit slow, on-chain data is still under observation, and there haven’t been any major moves from institutions so far. Let’s wait and see, feels like it still needs some time. --- It’s Tom Lee again. Whatever this guy buys, I have to take the opposite position. Last time I followed him, I got stuck. --- Cold wallet locking is the way to go. Seeing those retail investors’ chips still sitting on exchanges, this time looks risky. --- I just want to know if this 150 million from Tom Lee is his own money or if he’s managing it for someone else. If he’s really spending out of his own pocket, that’s interesting. --- You’re saying you need all three signals to line up before betting? Bro, you’re being too cautious. By the time you wait, the opportunity is gone in this kind of market. --- The supply is getting tighter and tighter. Feels like it’s getting close, but don’t be too optimistic, still need to play it safe. --- To put it simply, it all depends on whether institutions are willing to take over. What’s Tom Lee’s move compared to that? The real big players haven’t even moved yet.
