TL;DR<\/strong><\/p>\n

It happened with BTC and with XRP \u2013 is it time for investors to look into the possibility of securing some profits after ETH also charted a new all-time high?
\nIn this article, we will also show you which entities are selling ETH and who is buying. Hint: the US President is involved.<\/p>\n

Has the Time Come?<\/h2>\n

The chart above paints a picture worth a million dollars. It shows how ETH, which was once among the poorest performers in 2025, turned the tables and skyrocketed from under $2,200 marked on June 23 to an all-time high of $4,900<\/a> two months later, on August 22. From a percentage perspective, this mindblowing rally represents a 130% surge in roughly 60 days.<\/p>\n

A lot changed for Ethereum along the way. Investors went wild for its underlying asset, which is evident from the massive inflows in the ETH ETFs as well as the growing number of tokens purchased<\/a> by many Ethereum treasury companies.<\/p>\n

But, still, the essential question for ETH investors has popped up \u2013 has the time come to sell (at least some portions)?<\/p>\n

#ETH<\/a> is up over 100% after one month<\/p>\n

Now is a good time \u2013 Realise BIG profits!<\/p>\n

Gave you ETH to buy low, and now sell high<\/p>\n

Doctor Profit seems to think so. The self-described \u201celite trader, master of x100\u201d believes ETH investors should realize \u201cBIG\u201d profits. This wouldn\u2019t be a surprise in the crypto market. Recall that profit-taking went through the roof<\/a> for both XRP and BTC in July and August as the assets charted new all-time highs of their own.<\/p>\n

Matrixport has apparently adopted Doctor Profit\u2019s approach, as several of the company\u2019s wallets have made substantial deposits into Binance and OKX, with the most likely intention of selling $450 million worth of ETH.<\/p>\n

Multiple wallets linked to #Matrixport<\/a> deposited 95,873 $ETH<\/a>($452M) into #Binance<\/a> and #OKX<\/a> over the past 3 hours.https:\/\/t.co\/NKiO55cVOy<\/a>https:\/\/t.co\/U8AXgsVjSW<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/DFEJatM4LA<\/a><\/p>\n

But They Are Buying<\/h2>\n

In contrast to the above is the approach undertaken by this Bitcoin OG<\/a>, who sold large BTC portions only to buy ETH spot and open long Ethereum positions. The mysterious wallet has only doubled down on their ETH position since yesterday.<\/p>\n

This Bitcoin OG deposited another 300 $BTC<\/a>($34.86M) into Hyperliquid to sell for $ETH<\/a> an hour ago.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s up $100M+ in unrealized profits:<\/p>\n

Holding a 135,265 $ETH<\/a>($581M) long at $4,295 avg entry, up $58M.<\/p>\n

Bought 122,226 $ETH<\/a>($535M) spot at $4,377 avg, up $42M.\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/oSQcHLNfap<\/a><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s also not forget that the Trump family\u2019s World Liberty has continued to accumulate ETH, even as the asset\u2019s price skyrocketed yesterday. According<\/a> to Lookonchain, the team spent $5 million USDC to acquire an additional 1,076 ETH.<\/p>\n

Obviously, the question of whether it\u2019s time to sell is a very personal one and it depends on the investor\u2019s current financial situation and risk appetite. But, if you want to read more about when it\u2019s actually a good time to sell any asset, including ETH, you can check this guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n
