Whale Sells $3M RNDR, Market Reacts

major RNDR holder reduced their position significantly, sparking a decline in the token’s price. According to The Data Nerd, within 24 hours, the Render whale known as 0x1Cb deposited 265,000 RNDR, worth about $2.78 million, to the major crypto exchange, Binance. 

Notably, the report showed that this whale had initially bought 365,000 RNDR at an average price of $9.20 and still retains 100,000 RNDR, worth approximately $1.1 million.

Meanwhile, over the past week, other large holders of RNDR have also capitalized on the crypto’s price rebound. Last week, a report from Spot On Chain showed that six whales collectively deposited 7.16 million RNDR tokens, valued at around $77.9 million, onto exchanges like Coinbase and Binance. 

This move allowed them to secure around $61 million in profits. The profit-taking strategy employed by these investors highlights their response to recent price surges. However, despite the selling pressure from these whales, not all investors are bearish. Some see the potential for future gains, particularly with upcoming events in the technology sector that could influence AI-related tokens like RNDR.
