    Sharp Decline in Cryptocurrency Prices

    Bitcoin and altcoins experienced a major drop over the weekend. The price of Bitcoin fell to $52,500, and Ethereum dropped to $2,150. This caused panic in the market, and many investors started selling their assets wildly.

    ETH Sale by Metalpha

    Metalpha, one of the leading cryptocurrency investment companies, also made a massive ETH sale. According to Lookonchain, Metalpha moved $23 million worth of ETH to Binance. An address associated with Hong Kong-based asset manager Metalpha deposited 10,000 ETH to Binance. In total, this address transferred 23,589 ETH worth $54.1 million to Binance over the last three days.

    Large Purchase by a Smart Whale

    While Metalpha continues to sell ETH, a smart whale bought 5,000 ETH worth $11.46 million in the last two days. This whale had previously bought 5,200 ETH at an average price of $1,322 in November 2022, and later sold it at an average price of $2,093 in January, December 2023, and January 2024, earning more than $4 million.
