The crypto market is particularly focused on ETH and BTC spot ETFs. The possibility that spot ETFs of the two largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization will be approved has increased bullish expectations. The crypto market has made enthusiastic purchases for the bull.
In the midst of all these market processes, Ether’s ICO whale moved 20 thousand ETH. Whale deposited 10 ETH to the Kraken exchange. Other transfers took place between wallets. It was noteworthy that the whale sent only 10 ETH to Kraken. This was interpreted as possible sales preparation. On the other hand, positive market conditions may also mean that the whale is expecting a possible ETH rise. Although it is not known in which direction it will affect the ETH price, the fact that the transfer was made by the ICO whale caused anxiety.
