AVAX Whale Movement
The major reason behind the recent AVAX price drop seems to be the strong whale activity by an entity (“0x32…4f30”) that transferred a massive 1.96 million AVAX coins to some top crypto exchanges like Binance, Coinbase, and Gate.
Based on the current market price, the value of this transfer came around $54.2 million. Further investigation into the matter revelaed that the entity used cross-chain bridges such as THORChain for the transfers.
This bearish development has further pushed the Avalanche valuations under $10 billion thereby falling behind other altcoins such as Tron (TRX) and Shiba Inu (SHIB). Amid the strong correction in recent weeks, Avalanche has lost near $14 billion in value since mid-March.
