Close to a year after the FTX hack involving the loss of $600 million worth of tokens, there is fresh movement from the address belonging to the exploiter 0x3e957, on chain data showed on Saturday, September 30, 2023. Does it mean the hacker is looking for the right #ETH Price to dump his tokens?
FTX Exploiter Transfers #Ethereum :
According to on chain data from Spotonchain, the FTX exploiter had activated his address for the first time after several months. The wallet #currently holds as many as $16.75 million ETH tokens.
In two spells of token transfers, the exploiters transferred 2,500
ETH worth $4 million each, the data showed. Such token transfers are usually associated with selloff activity, a move that could negatively impact the price for the small investors. Will the ETH price take a bullish trend soon with the launch of the various Ethereum ETFs in the United States?
Ethereum ETF Launch:
Another catalyst to the ETH price could be the launch of Ethereum based ETF from various firms on October 2, 2023. If things go as expected with the SEC following a US government shutdown, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may give an accelerated approval to the launch of as many as nine ETF products on October 2.
Meanwhile, the risk of a US government shutdown may likely trigger a #bitcoin BTC price owing to the adverse impact on the banking industry.
