Aave founder buys over 30,000 AAVE for 5.15 million dollars

2025-12-22 23:56:10

[Block Rhythm] Aave founder Stani Kulechov recently made a big move, spending 1,699 ETH (approximately $5.15 million) on December 23 to buy 32,660 AAVE tokens at an average price of $157.78. After this operation, his total AAVE holdings reached 84,033 tokens, with a book value of $12.6 million. However, it seems to be a bit of a loss right now—unrealized losses have reached $2.29 million. The pro's movements are still worth following, as such large orders can often reveal some market signals.

Even though the founders all lost money, we're still here messing around. This is really f***ing ridiculous.

Even the founders are pouring money in, is there still a need to say more about this signal?

The founder is spending their own money, which shows they still believe in this protocol. However, with unrealized losses of 2.29 million, it takes a strong mentality to continue holding.

Wow, buying in at 5.15 million dollars and now losing 2.29 million, what kind of mentality is this...

Eh, is it still around 129 now? This fellow bought at 157 and is down 2.29 million, how much more buying the dip is needed to recoup investment? --- Large Investors dumped 5.15 million in, I really want to see if this is true faith or just market stabilization. --- Those who bought at 157 are still facing unrealized losses, indicating that there was basically no support at that position, and the subsequent fall has been quite hard. --- Holding 840,000 AAVE, the concentration must be quite high... a quick on-chain check makes it clear. --- Even the founder is losing, this market signal is worth pondering, but don't blindly follow the trend. --- Spending 1,699 Ether just to stabilize the market? This cost is a bit high.

The pro is really bold with this move... daring to increase the position even after losing over 2 million?
