An on-chain address tracked as 0x2d2e added another 568 ETH ($1.32M) to its ASTEROID position, lifting total spending on the token to 1,063 ETH ($2.47M) for 8.38 billion ASTEROID (~$2.3M).
Why it matters
The wallet is now down roughly $167K on a position that has cost $2.47M but is marked at $2.3M, even after the latest top-up. Adding to a losing position rather than trimming or rotating is the classic late-stage conviction trade — the buyer is choosing spot exposure over realized loss and treating the mark-down as a buy-the-dip window.
Market impact
For a low-liquidity meme token like ASTEROID, a single wallet committing this much flow is itself the marginal price-setter. The 1,063 ETH stack makes 0x2d2e effectively the largest visible bid in the book; a decision to stop buying would strip the token of its main source of support just as the unrealized loss widens.

0x2d2e is an on-chain address flagged by lookonchain and similar trackers as a notable ASTEROID accumulator. The wallet is not tied to a known public figure or fund, but its size makes it the largest visible bid in the ASTEROID order book.

-
What is ASTEROID?
ASTEROID is a low-liquidity memecoin-style token. Its price is highly sensitive to a small number of large wallets, which is why a single address committing this much flow can move the market.
-
Why is a whale adding to a losing position?
Adding through a drawdown is a conviction trade — the buyer is choosing further spot exposure over realizing the loss and is treating the dip as an accumulation window. It concentrates risk in one address and one thin-liquidity market.
-
What happens if the wallet stops buying?
Because 0x2d2e is the largest visible bid in the ASTEROID book, a halt in buying would strip the token of its main source of support. That would likely accelerate the move against the position and re-price the token against all other holders.
