2 altcoin whales sell 19,090 ETH after Vitalik Buterin sale
On May 7, the two whales sold 19,090 Ethereum (ETH) worth about $35.7 million on Uniswap. The sales come after the Ethereum Foundation and co-founder Vitalik Buterin sold nearly $30 million worth of cryptocurrencies on Kraken a few hours ago.
As Kriptokoin.com, we mentioned that the Etehreum team started selling ETH on Kraken last week. The first whale in recent transactions turned 9,950 ETH to 18.63 million DAI. Shortly after, another whale sold 9,140 ETH for 17.07 million DAI.
2 whales panicked and dumped 19,090 $ETH ($35.7M) on #Uniswap after the ETH Foundation dumped 15,000 $ETH ($29.7M) to #Kraken.
– 0x6071 exchanged 9,950 $ETH for 18.63M $DAI at $1,873.
– 0x7641 exchanged 9,140 $ETH for 17.07M $DAI at $1,867.https://t.co/T6eXuuvX55 pic.twitter.com/5OXvo1OdKm

After these sales and Buterin’s exit, Ethereum price is trending downwards. Recent actions by Buterin and the Ethereum Foundation raise questions about whether ETH can continue the upward trend seen in the first quarter of 2023.
The last time the Ethereum Foundation sold its holdings, ETH entered a prolonged bear market. It is not yet clear whether prices are currently peaking and whether sellers will force the cryptocurrency to drop further in the coming sessions.
Clairvoyant Labs pulled 1.86 million BLUR from OKX
In another exchange-directed transaction, OKX witnessed crypto investment firm Clairvoyant Labs’ nearly $880,000 BLUR withdrawal. The source of the data, Ember, reported that the company was selling at the cost line and then repurchasing at the bottom.
・Clairvoyant Labs 4/22 从 #OKX 提出 170 万 $BLUR ，当时价格 $0.59；
・5/2 全部转入 #OKX，当时价格 $0.62；
・20 分钟前，Clairvoyant Labs 再从 OKX 提出 186 万 BLUR（$0.88M），目前 BLUR $0.47。BLUR 最近是跌的挺狠的…
看来该机构是做了个波段，在成本线上售出，并在下跌后重新买进。 https://t.co/6AB681K731 pic.twitter.com/M2aYQzm2jH— 余烬 (@BitcoinEmber) May 9, 2023
