Approximately 5 hours earlier, the 1inch Team utilized $10 million in USDT and an additional $70,000 in USDC, to purchase roughly 6087 $ETH at a price of $1,660.
In another Move, Vitalik transferred 3k ETH, equivalent to around $4.95M, to a different wallet. Some are mistakenly interpreting this as a Sell, spreading FUD.

Following this Tiny $BLUR's Pump today, Wintermute Just moved 13.1 million $BLUR (valued at $2.92M) to two crypto exchanges:
- 8 million $BLUR ($1.78M) to OKX.
- 5.1 million $BLUR ($1.13M) to Kraken.
Both batches originate from the Blur team and investor unlocked allocations, being Dumped through Wintermute.

Market is looking overly PVP with participants risking 1e to make .1e gain.
Makes for a very difficult micro/thin Volatile market to trade with.

DWF Bought $CYBER yesterday $750k worth from Binance.
$CYBER $8 now (ATH) DWF bought around $4 cartl
The $DYDX yesterday had unlocks of $6.18 for trading rewards, $2.47 for liquidity provider rewards, and $5.36 for treasury rewards.
Rewards typically create selling pressure on the price. [If not being handled with counter strategies]
Overall, the real pressure from unlocks hasn't started yet. Since these unlocks are vested linearly, the real spikes in unlocks are expected by the end of 2023. At that time, investors, employees, and even [future employees]' tokens will start being Load-off on the market, leading to further price volatility. For now it's a Short Opportunity with a Invalidation above previous High spike.!
Tokens should be a means to an end, not the end itself. Over-reliance on rewards can overshadow the true utility and potential of a platform.
