Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, sold 5,000 DHN tokens, prompting significant market changes and a 57% price drop.

On March 18, 2025, Vitalik Buterin sold 5,000 DHN tokens for 65.19 ETH.

57% DHN Price Drop

The immediate effect of Buterin's transaction was a substantial decline in DHN token price, impacting traders and causing market fluctuations. The Ethereum market showed some degree of stability, trading around $1,898.25 with a recent 1.45% increase. However, strategic decisions by influential figures like Buterin can impact investor confidence.

Market Volatility Due to Major Holders

Historical data shows similar effects when notable stakeholders adjust their crypto holdings, often leading to temporary market volatility. Such actions can reflect broader market trends, adding caution among traders. Analysts suggest that these transactions represent a strategy of reallocating assets, possibly in response to economic conditions.

Vitalik Buterin's actions once again highlight the importance of strategies by prominent figures in the crypto market, affecting asset prices and market perceptions.
