A wave of operations earned $2.4 million: whales use "risk events" to turn profits around

On-chain monitoring shows that after the rsETH event fermented, a whale quickly completed a high-quality operation:

Withdrew 10,829 ETH from Aave (about $24.91 million)

Then sold all at approximately $2,300 per ETH

Finally exchanged for about $24.91 million USDC

This operation realized a profit of about $2.41 million

And this batch of ETH was already acquired in March at a cost of about $2,081 per ETH.
Logically, this is not simply "buy low, sell high," but a typical event-driven trade:
When the market fluctuates due to a risk event, smart money often exploits emotional mismatches to quickly take profits or switch positions.
The core of this kind of operation is not predicting the market, but executing discipline — acting decisively when it’s time to act, and not hesitating to exit.
In the crypto market, opportunities often hide in panic, but profits belong only to those who are prepared. You can understand the market, but more importantly, have you made the right move at the critical moment?
