A major <a class="ticker-mention" href="/en-US/token/aster">$ASTER</a> holder who accumulated 68.25M tokens at an average price of $1.66 roughly seven months ago has deposited 34.62M ASTER — worth approximately $22.95M at current prices — into the Aster protocol.
The deposit preceded a 4.4% price decline in ASTER, deepening an already significant paper loss. The whale still holds 24.25M ASTER valued at around $15.92M, a far cry from the ~$113M entry cost of the original position.
Total unrealised losses for this wallet now exceed $67M, making it one of the more closely watched distressed positions in the ASTER ecosystem. Whether the remaining holdings are sold, staked, or held will likely continue to weigh on near-term price sentiment.
