Tron ($TRX ) is in the spotlight, not only due to its price movement but also due to a 973% increase in whale transactions, even as the broader cryptocurrency market experienced $343 million in sell-offs.
According to on-chain data, the volume of transactions for $TRX increased
large transactions (typically defined as transfers over $100,000) by about ten times within just 24 hours. According to IntoTheBlock data, the volume of large transactions on Tron, indicating whale activity, surged by 973.2% in the past 24 hours to reach $598.96 million.
This increase in whale activity coincided with a market-wide decline, totaling over $343 million in liquidations as traders took profits. After Monday's rise, the market trend reversed in early Tuesday's session, with most cryptocurrencies trading lower due to profit-taking and macroeconomic uncertainties.
