The weekend high likely stemmed from a renowned whale moving large amounts of BTC to Binance.
Blockchain intelligence firm Arkham said Sunday that a crypto whale, possibly Garret Jin, operating on Hyperliquid's cross-chain asset tokenization and bridging infrastructure Hyperunit, transferred $760 million in bitcoin to Binance. The large transfer happened roughly six days after the entity moved half a billion dollars of ether to Binance.
It is unclear whether the whale has since liquidated coins, but the possibility cannot be ruled out, as bitcoin fell from $67,600 to $64,400 during Asian hours early Monday. Since then, it has recovered slightly to trade around $65,850.
