Recently, a veteran in the investment circle discussed his latest move—continuing to pour 1 billion in real money into ETH. The current book shows a loss, but he remains completely calm and is instead full of expectations for the market trends around 2026.



The mastermind behind this is Yili Hua, whose investment firm Trend Research has been quietly positioning in ETH since early November. Their cost basis is around $3,200. To be honest, this position has definitely experienced quite a few fluctuations, but they have chosen to hold firm and even continue to add more, with no plans to reduce their holdings.

This kind of operation—still betting during market turbulence—actually reflects an attitude—these long-term participants have their own deep judgment about the industry’s development in the coming years. It’s not blind optimism, but a logical gamble on the future.

So, the question is, what do you all think about the market in 2026? What are your expectations? Feel free to share your thoughts below.
ETH-0,62%

Yili Hua's move this time is quite aggressive, risking losses and still daring to continue throwing in. Where does this confidence come from? Speaking of the current market at a 3200 cost, how much mental endurance does it take to withstand... I still remain optimistic about ETH, but I just don't have that much ammunition left. 2026 is really hard to say, but these big players have always had a clearer logic than retail investors. It's still okay to follow and get some gains. Wait, does he really not reduce his holdings at all? You must really trust yourself a lot.

Haha, pouring another 1 billion... They really have some guts. The cost at 3200 is definitely underwater now, but I just want to know what makes them so sure they can turn things around by 2026? Honestly, it's still about information gaps and the amount of capital. Retail investors like us don't have that kind of luck.

Oh my, this guy's guts are really bold, risking money and still daring to keep throwing in more --- Yili Hua is truly a believer. If I had this mindset, I would have been financially free long ago --- The 3200 cost is still under pressure now. If it were me, I would have been washed out long ago --- What sounds like a long-term judgment is actually just betting on the 2026 bull market --- A billion, a billion... If you keep throwing in, you'll either become a god or go crazy --- I just want to know how much he's lost. Hopefully, he's not just another leek being used as a bagholder in the end --- This kind of operation looks smooth, but how many bullets does it take to be so tough behind the scenes --- 2026? Bro, I'm worried about how to survive Q1 next year --- My cousin has been playing for so long and still keeps a steady mindset. Truly experienced --- Let me ask, do you really believe in 2026 or are you just hoping? --- Putting aside adding more funds for now, the key is, what's his betting logic? --- This is called the power of capital, ordinary people can only watch the show --- It's called deep judgment in a nice way, but in a harsh way, it's just betting on the 2026 gamble --- I believe in his judgment, but we shouldn't ignore that this position is indeed dangerous

Haha, pouring in 1 billion and adding more? That takes some serious mental resilience. Yilihua's move is truly ruthless; buying ETH at 3200 must be really painful now... But on the other hand, this fearless attitude really can intimidate others. 2026? I don't know, anyway I didn't dare to put everything in, I'm a coward. Is this just a gambler's mentality or genuine belief? Honestly, it's hard to tell. Wait, are they really not reducing their holdings? Could they be secretly cutting losses behind the scenes...

1 billion continues to be invested, this guy really dares to do it, let's see if he can turn things around by 2026. Yi Lihua's move is not just confidence, he must have seen something. This is what investment logic is all about—no following the trend and no panic. The current position at a 3200 cost is indeed tough, but experienced traders are different, and this is where it shows. Basically, it's a gamble on the cycle; if right, tenfold returns; if wrong, accept it. I'm curious about what this judgment is based on—it's definitely not just looking at candlestick charts. I can understand holding steady without adding positions, but continuing to pour money in... how confident must he be? The 2026 timeline is a bit particular—whether it's a special consideration or just a numbers game. Being so calm despite paper losses—either he's made big money before or he truly has strong faith. Instead of asking me what I think, better ask him how he's so steady. This is the difference between large holders and retail investors—one bets on the future, the other bets on tomorrow.
