#美联储回购协议计划 Breaking News! Top Research Institution Trend Research Invests Nearly $35 Million to Acquire 11,520 ETH
On December 29, the crypto market announced a major move. Hosted by Yi Lihua, Trend Research made another move, increasing their holdings by 11,520 ETH, which is approximately $34.93 million at current prices. This action has sparked a wave of discussion within the community.
After the update, Trend Research's total Ethereum holdings have reached 590,000 ETH, with a market value of about $1.78 billion. It’s worth noting that before this increase, they already held 580,000 ETH (around $1.74 billion). Although the size of this purchase is not huge relative to their total holdings, the signal it sends is worth pondering—does this represent a deep confidence in ETH's fundamentals?
Behind such a large-scale accumulation, market opinions vary. Some believe it reflects optimism about Ethereum’s long-term value—after all, ETH is the core of the public chain ecosystem, with expanding applications and ongoing technological iterations. Others speculate that institutional buying could trigger a follow-the-leader effect, supporting ETH’s price trend.
Historically, such large holdings often mark a market turning point. Seeing institutional actions at the end of the year prompts many to reassess ETH’s value positioning. Whether this can trigger a chain reaction and catalyze a new wave of market activity depends on the reactions of market participants.

35 million aggressively acquiring ETH, is this a sign of genuine confidence or just another attempt to harvest retail investors?
---
The signal to pump is here, should we follow or not?
---
590,000 ETH, honestly, this amount isn't that significant, don't overinterpret it.
---
The end-of-year moves are a bit interesting, but I’ll wait to see the actions after the EIP.
---
Institutional buying = market is coming? Wake up, this trick is old and tired.
---
Just want to ask, will their increased holdings be just paving the way for a dump later?
---
Has the fundamentals of ETH really improved, or is it just a capital game?
---
They’re not the only ones bottom-fishing ETH at year-end, this isn’t big news.
---
Big moves are big moves, but the key is whether the mainnet upgrade can deliver later.
---
Their buying is their business, retail investors should just keep their own rhythm to stay safe.

Oops, here we go again, throwing 35 million in to pump the market? I highly doubt it.
---
59 million ETH? That’s crazy. I don’t even have 59 in my pocket.
---
Following the trend is pointless; better wait for a pullback.
---
Yilihua’s move this time is indeed impressive, but signals can be sent by anyone. It all depends on whether the price will rise later.
---
Institutions pouring money in = the market will go up? Wake up, those guys played the same game in 2021.
---
A holding volume of $1.78 billion is indeed impressive, but can it really support ETH to take off? I remain skeptical.
---
End-of-year rally? Better to see if there’s a sharp drop in January.
---
Adding just over 10,000 tokens isn’t much; compared to the total position, it’s just a drop in the bucket. Probably mostly hype.

Buying more and more, these institutions just never stop
Big investors follow the trend, retail investors get caught, old tricks again
$1.78 billion in holdings, claiming not to be nervous is just nonsense
$35 million in size, really not a big deal
This end-of-year move is mostly just for show, we'll see how it plays out later

This move is pretty ruthless, are they about to start harvesting the little guys again?
