Oct 24. 7 tokens. Around $22M. One line from Hayes: “I dumped it all.” Maelstrom’s directional book is now flat. Most of it was ETH, roughly 6,400 coins, then ENA, UNI, ETHFI, AERO, PENDLE and ZAMA. Lookonchain counts about $22.3M, other trackers say closer to $26M, so treat the number as approximate data, not confirmation. Order matters here. On-chain trackers saw coins moving to market makers and OTC desks first, and only then did he confirm on X. June looked the same. HYPE, NEAR, ZEC and WLD all went within three days. A few days later a wallet linked to him bought back about 34K HYPE after a 26% drop (Arkham). He’s a trader, not an oracle. His reason is macro and geopolitics. He thinks the market has to fall before it rises, and he’s sitting out until the all-clear. The Fed decides on Oct 28. Frens, arguing whether he’s right gets you nowhere. One source says the coins he sold in June now trade above his exit prices (approximate, check it yourself). So his exit isn’t automatically a top or a bottom signal. I’m tracking this book and the on-chain flow around Fed day, will post what moves. Are you holding alts into the 28th or cutting size?
