Please think about it. If it weren't for whales, prices wouldn't be pumped up. I purchased coins when they were near their highest and at least I have hope because I believe a plethora of whales can pump them back up sometime this year. Even if the project is a great project, there is no way we can expect the coin to rise in value unless there is mass adoption, which I don't see it anytime soon. So therefore, we should not fear whales but rather thank them. 
Whales are those who show us the real value of a particular coin. After all, they also initially risk, investing their capital to influence the market. Therefore, we must necessarily monitor their actions.
