An anonymous whale wallet sold 20,000 ETH for about $41.18 million within an hour, averaging $2,059 per ETH. This large sale adds to recent whale exits, including an 8,771 ETH deposit to Binance earlier in May, signaling growing selling pressure on Ethereum. The rapid sale likely involved an OTC desk or acceptance of price slippage, impacting market liquidity and price stability around the $2,000 support level. Traders should watch for further whale activity that could intensify selling pressure.
