On-chain analyst Ember said a whale or institution that has been rotating out of Bitcoin and into Ether sold another 246.2 BTC over the past 24 hours, with the sale valued at $20.36 million, and used the proceeds to buy 10,636 ETH. Ember’s tracking shows the same entity has been carrying out the trade over multiple days rather than in a single move. Since the 11th, the whale or institution has sold a cumulative 1,847.3 BTC over an 11-day period. Those sales were converted into 153 million USDC, which was then used to purchase 63,731 ETH. The average entry price for the ETH buys was about $2,400, according to the monitoring data cited by ChainCatcher. The update adds another data point to a transaction pattern already flagged on-chain: reducing BTC exposure, moving into USDC, and then building an ETH position. No additional identity details about the whale or institution were disclosed in the report.
