After the August 5th crash, which tokens did the whales buy at the bottom?

On August 5, the global capital market suffered a historic plunge. Although the market rebounded after the opening of the U.S. stock market last night, the shadow of "Black Monday" has not yet dissipated.

The crypto market plummeted on August 5, with the total market value falling below 1.9 trillion US dollars at one point, a 24-hour drop of 16.8%; the market value of Bitcoin fell below 1 trillion US dollars, and was overtaken by Meta, falling to the 10th place in the market value of the world's mainstream assets; and Ethereum even wiped out all its gains this year, which is equivalent to the starting price of the K-line on January 1.

But as the saying goes, a crash is both a danger and an opportunity. With the help of 0x Scope data, BlockBeats sorted out the buying and selling trends of whales whose single swap transactions on the Ethereum chain exceeded $100,000 between August 5 and August 6, to see which tokens the whales bought/sold during this crash.

It should be noted that there were 1,671 transactions of more than $100,000 during the statistical period, of which stablecoin transactions were not included in the following data analysis. In addition, there were tokens including WLD, LDO, SDEX, UNI, TURBO, etc. that only had one to three transactions, so they were not included in the following statistics.
