Justin Sun Dumps ETH<\/h2>\n

NewLido Finance. According to the on-chain data, this massive withdrawal was part of the ETH stash Sun allegedly accumulated between February and August 2024.<\/p>\n

Spot On Chain has revealed that the total amount of Ethereum Sun bought<\/a> within this period amounted to 392,474 ETH tokens, valued at $1.19 billion. All of these tokens were purchased via three wallet addresses at an average price of $3,027. Presently, the total profit the Tron founder has acquired since his purchase is up to $349 million, representing a 29% increase from its purchasing price.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Interestingly, on October 24, Sun had unstaked a massive 80,251 ETH tokens, worth over $131 million, from Lido Finance. Four days later, he transferred the entire amount to resulted in a loss for Sun.<\/p>\n

\"Ethereum<\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, this is not the first time Sun has dumped Ethereum. Spot On Chain revealed earlier this month that the Tron Founder had been cashing in his Ethereum holdings<\/a> during the market rally.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In November, Sun deposited<\/a> 19,000 ETH worth $60.83 million to HTX, a crypto exchange. Additionally, he transferred<\/a> 29,920 ETH valued at $119.7 million to HTX again after its price surpassed $4,000 over the past week. These are just a few transactions the Tron founder has made with ETH over the past month.<\/p>\n

Given Sun\u2019s history of large-scale asset movements, further sell-offs could impact the already fragile Ethereum market. Nevertheless, the lingering question remains whether the Tron founder will continue his Ethereum dumping spree<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ethereum Price Crash Ahead?<\/h2>\n

While Sun has not publicly commented on his recent large-scale Ethereum withdrawals, the size and timing of these transactions could pose a problem for the altcoin’s future trajectory. Historically, large ETH liquidations have triggered a price crash due to increasing selling pressures.<\/p>\n

With the price of Ethereum still unstable and aiming for a stronger upward rally, further large-scale ETH dumps could exacerbate market volatility, especially if other investors or whales follow suit. For now, the price of Ethereum seems to be performing well, recording a more than 7% increase in the last seven days and a 28% surge over the past month, according to CoinMarketCap.<\/p>\n
