What happened? On 21 April, an unknown address transferred 34,043 ETH worth $66.28 million to cryptocurrency exchange Binance, 0xScope protocol analysts reported. Meanwhile, most of the sent coins were purchased on March 11, when ETH was at $1420. Analysts suggested that the whale may be locking in profits and stated that the value of ETH may have reached a local peak.
