‘Giant Whale’ Accumulating Ethereum DeFi Altcoin, According to Lookonchain
A large entity is reportedly accumulating Uniswap’s native token UNI , according to blockchain tracking firm Lookonchain.
Citing data from on-chain “de-anonymizer” Arkham, Lookonchain reports that an unknown deep-pocketed investor has begun withdrawing UNI from Binance, the largest crypto exchange in the world.
“A giant whale is accumulating UNI!
This whale has withdrawn a total of 1.7 million UNI ($15.54 million) from Binance in the [past days].”
According to Arkham’s data, the whale also holds $15.8 million in Tether’s USDT in the same wallet which was created only about two weeks ago.
Uniswap is the second-largest decentralized exchange (DEX) in the world, according to CoinGecko, and UNI is its governance token. Uniswap is the top DEX operating on Ethereum ( ETH ).
At time of writing, UNI is trading for $9.22, up over 50% in the past year.
Lookonchain also reported two whales loading up on HYPE , the native token for the layer-1 DEX Hyperliquid.
“Whales are buying HYPE.
0xfD7A…Ea8d deposited 3 million USDC to Hyperliquid and bought 130,422 HYPE ($2.96 million).
0x3369….ADdF deposited 6.95 million USDC to Hyperliquid and bought 186,964 HYPE ($4.24 million).”
At time of writing, HYPE, which only launched just over two months ago, is trading for $23.52, up over 5% on the day.
