Massive Whale Causes Sudden Altcoin Drop on Chart
A significant whale made waves in the cryptocurrency market today, as Onchain data revealed a major impact on the price of an altcoin. Reportedly, within a span of two hours, this whale sold a staggering .08 million worth of UniSwap (UNI) tokens, resulting in a 4% drop in the UNI price. The effects of this sell-off were clearly visible on the UNI chart, showing a sharp decline in value.
This particular cryptocurrency whale had acquired the UNI tokens at an average price of .54, making a total purchase of .7 million. As of the latest data, the UNI price is now at .46, indicating the influence of the whale’s sell-off.
Despite offloading a significant portion of UNI tokens, the whale still holds 969,808 UNI tokens valued at .46 million. The profits derived from the recent sales amount to around 0 thousand. It’s worth noting that the whale holds these tokens across three different wallets.
In other news, Uniswap is set to implement a fee switch mechanism soon. This mechanism, which has garnered strong support from the community, aims to redirect some transaction fees on the platform to UNI token holders.
