On Aug. 29, 2026, ChainCatcher reported, citing Lookonchain's on-chain monitoring, that the whale known as Machi (@machibigbrother, wallet 0x020...5872) currently holds an ETH long position worth more than $100 million, making it the largest ETH long on the chain. After a market decline, Machi closed part of the position about seven hours ago, suffering a loss of $1.96 million. The whale's remaining holdings consist of 41,000 ETH, valued at $100.01 million; 75,000 HYPE tokens, valued at $6.03 million; and 45 bitcoins, valued at $3.5 million. Combined, these positions are worth about $109.54 million. These figures come directly from Lookonchain's monitoring data. The position size underscores Machi's dominant presence as an ETH bull.
