On-chain tracking shows a large crypto wallet that lost about $18 million on an Ethereum trade between November 3 and November 7, 2025 has overhauled its portfolio. After spending roughly $110 million to buy 31,005 ETH and later exiting near $92.19 million, the address has shifted heavily into USDT, USDC and Tether's XAUT tokenized gold, building a metals-linked position while cutting directional exposure to Ether. The wallet now holds close to $91 million, with the majority parked in stablecoins and a smaller allocation in gold-backed tokens and reduced ETH.

In 2025, crypto wallet-draining phishing scams caused about $83.85 million in losses, an 83% drop from roughly $494 million in 2024, according to Scam Sniffer's annual analysis.

Security experts say the decline likely reflects better wallet defenses and user tools, but warn that phishing tactics continue to evolve alongside market cycles.
