After the FED interest rate decision announced yesterday, Bitcoin is approaching the $ 43,000 limit again, while the largest altcoin Ethereum is at $ 2,280.
While BTC and altcoins were gaining momentum after the FED, a new move came from an early Ethereum whale.
Lookonchain said in its post that the early Ethereum investor bought ETH at approximately $60 in 2017 and woke up after 3 years of inactivity.
Accordingly, after 3 years of sleep, the whale deposited 5,000 of its ETHs to the crypto exchange Coinbase.
“A whale, which has been inactive for approximately 3 years, deposited 5,000 ETH (worth $11.3 million) to Coinabse 3 hours ago.
The whale currently has 20,398 ETH (worth $45.88 million) left.”
Lookonchain also added that the whale bought ETH from Bitfinex in 2017 when the price was around $60.
Accordingly, while this whale’s ETH transfer to Coinbase is considered as preparation for a profit sale, if the whale sells these ETHs, it will make a profit of approximately 38 times the purchase price.
