In addition to the influence of macro factors such as traditional financial markets, the selling by leading market maker Jump Trading was once considered to be an important factor causing the 85 decline.

So, before and after the Jump sell-off, what actions did other top crypto market makers take? Did they follow suit and sell ETH, hold a large amount of stablecoins for risk hedging, or buy high-quality assets at the bottom? Odaily Planet Daily will analyze the public addresses of the other six major market makers from a data perspective, analyze their position changes before and after the 85 crash, and summarize them, hoping to provide readers with some reference in the treacherous market changes.

GSR Markets: Continued selling of ETH

Before the 85 crash, according to ARKHAM data, the total net value of the public address on the GSR Markets chain decreased from August 1 to August 5.

Zusammenfassung

From the on-chain position change data, it can be seen that GSR Markets most likely followed Jump to sell ETH before the 85 crash, and continued to reduce its holdings after the crash. Stablecoins have always been GSR Markets largest position as a safe-haven asset, which may indicate that it is still not optimistic about the market outlook.

Amber Group: Panic selling of ETH during the crash

Before the “85” crash (8.1-8.5)

Before the 85 crash, according to ARKHAM data, the total net value of Amber Groups public addresses on the chain increased from August 1 to August 5.

Zusammenfassung

From the above position changes, we can see that Amber Group did not have much premonition before the crash, nor did it follow Jump to sell, but instead increased its holdings of ETH. However, when the 85 crash occurred, Amber Group transferred all the ETH it had increased a few days ago, and more than half of it went directly to the exchange. The position changes of Amber Group show that compared with other market makers, it did not anticipate the arrival of the black swan, but was more like an ordinary trader who was swayed by the market.

B2C 2 Group: Massive reduction of all tokens

Before the “85” crash (8.1-8.5)

Before the 85 crash, according to ARKHAM data, the total net value of the public addresses on the B2C 2 Group chain increased from August 1 to August 5. The main changes were: ETH holdings increased by 4,650, BTC holdings increased by 531.52, and 216,500 UNI, 23,000 COMP, and 32,000 DAI were also added .

Zusammenfassung

From the above holding data, we can see that B2C 2 Group did not follow Jump to reduce its holdings of ETH before the 85 crash, but instead increased its holdings; however, after the crash, it quickly reduced almost all of its tokens, but most of them were transferred to unknown addresses. Although there is no obvious evidence that it is selling, the largest position currently held by B2C 2 Group is the safe-haven stablecoin, which also indirectly reflects that it is not very optimistic about the market outlook.

Zusammenfassung

Although Wintermute increased its holdings of stablecoins for risk hedging before the crash, it also increased its holdings of ETH; at the same time, after the crash, in addition to adjusting its holdings of stablecoins for risk hedging, it continued to increase its holdings of BTC, and there was no large outflow of ETH that had previously flowed in. Judging from these on-chain position change data, Wintermute did not seem to have a violent panic reaction to the 85 crash and Jump sell-off, and was relatively optimistic about the market outlook.

Flow Traders: Sell ETH but buy BTC at the bottom

Before the “85” crash (8.1-8.5)

Before the 85 crash, according to ARKHAM data, the total net value of the public address on the Flow Traders chain was decreasing from August 1 to August 5.

Zusammenfassung

Flow Traders seemed to have foreseen the crash, and the on-chain public addresses reduced their holdings in advance. In particular, a large amount of ETH was transferred to the chain the day before, but then transferred to the exchange in large quantities the next day. If it was a sell-off, it would be a perfect escape from the top. At the same time, Flow Traders still had confidence in BTC after the crash, and increased its holdings by more than 800 coins in total.

Judging from the position change data on the chain, Flow Traders carried out ETH top-escape and BTC bottom-fishing operations before and after the 85 crash and during the Jump sell-off. The excellent trading made it one of the beneficiaries of this market fluctuation.

DWF Labs: Holding a copycat and not moving

Before the “85” crash (8.1-8.5)

Before the 85 crash, according to ARKHAM data, the DWF Labs public on-chain address held mostly altcoins, and the largest holdings were TRADE, GALA, DEXE, etc. Although the passive depreciation of the net asset value decreased, there was no obvious flow of tokens, and the detailed data is shown in the figure below.

Zusammenfassung

From the above holdings data, it can be seen that although the cryptocurrency market has experienced a sharp decline and other market makers are operating, DWF Labs belongs to the group that lies flat. Even though it has a lot of altcoins in its hands, it still does not exchange them for stablecoins and other assets for risk hedging. This may be because it is optimistic about the future market or has enough confidence in the altcoins it holds.
