Sun Buys 361,137 ETH Across Three Wallets, Spending $1 Billion

According to the affidavit, from February till June, Sun used three separate wallets to purchase 361,137 ETH at a total cost of approximately $1 billion. In February, with wallet “0x7a9” he bought 169604 Eth with an average price of $2,870 for 1 Eth. In April, 176,117 ETHs were bought by him through the wallet “0x435” with the average price per ETH at $3,177. Lastly, in June, he purchases 15,416 ETH using “0xdbf” wallet at the average value of $3,474 per ETH.

These wallets typically obtained ETH from Binance instantly after Sun bought a batch of stablecoins. Cryptocurrencies also remain very volatile and investing into them is always a risky move as Sun has discovered recently.
