A long-dormant Bitcoin “OG” has been rotating billions of dollars’ worth of BTC into ETH over the past two weeks, executing the bulk of the trades on Hyperliquid and withdrawing large tranches of ETH to self-custody—before staking a significant portion on the Beacon Chain. Bitcoin OG Whale Still Rotates Into ETH On-chain sleuth “MLM” has chronicled the flows in real time. In the most recent 46-hour window, the address cluster associated with the trader sold 7,000 BTC (≈$759 million at reference prices used by MLM) and bought 171,791.84 ETH (≈$773 million). MLM added that 3,000 BTC remained in the actively used source address—likely earmarked for further rotation—while two older wallets still held a combined 46,816 BTC (≈$5.07 billion). Cumulatively across the past 11 days, MLM tallied 34,110 BTC sold (≈$3.7 billion) and 813,298.84 ETH purchased (≈$3.66 billion), using $108,400 per BTC and $4,500 per ETH as baseline pricing for comparability. The execution venue has become part of the story. Hyperliquid’s public explorer (HypurrScan) shows heavy activity at the Hyperliquid account cited by MLM, corresponding with phased BTC deposits and batched ETH withdrawals. “MoonOverlord”—a trader—downplayed the mystery around the venue choice: “idk why it’s bizarre? it’s a trade, he picked the best venue.” MLM replied that the oddity is not the platform but that “the identity of this person is unknown, and he decided to swap such a large amount of BTC to ETH, which is unusual for a ‘og’ bitcoin whale.” Related Reading: Bitcoin Risks Deeper Losses If $107,800 Line Fails To Hold – Details Arkham Intelligence independently flagged the same entity, writing: “THIS WHALE JUST BOUGHT $430M OF ETH – AND STILL HAS $650M LEFT TO BUY,” and identifying specific addresses on both chains. According to Arkham, the whale “has purchased over $3 BILLION of ETH in total and staked the majority of it,” with flows linking a BTC source wallet beginning “169q…” and an ETH receiver “0x6167…”. Those staking claims are now visible on-chain. On September 1, funding flows from 0x6167… led to a “Beacon Depositor” account that submitted a series of deposit transactions totaling 165,010 ETH to Ethereum’s staking contract, with dozens of 30,000 ETH-sized and 15,010 ETH-sized deposit calls posted within the same hour. The deposit contract view and the funding trail from 0x6167… corroborate that a substantial slice of the newly acquired ETH has moved directly into staking. On the Bitcoin side, the active source wallet “169q…” and two long-idle companion wallets “17MWd…” and “12Xqe…” anchor the cluster that MLM has been tracking since last week. Mempool records show recent inter-wallet activity and outputs from 169q… consistent with the staged deposits to Hyperliquid described in the thread. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price Closes Below STH Realized Price For The 2nd Time In 2025 — Details The trader’s provenance is still speculative. MLM argues the entity is “presumably Asian,” noting that the original BTC was accumulated seven to eight years ago via Asia-linked platforms and miners—“HTX, OKX, ViaBTC (a mining pool), Bixin (a miner), and Binance.” But MLM cautioned readers not to over-interpret intent: “Of course, don’t take this prediction as financial advice, since it’s all speculation for now and we don’t know the intentions of this whale.” $5 Billion Selloff Still Looms While commentators are debating motives, the mechanics are clear: staged BTC funding to a single trading venue, piecemeal ETH fills to minimize slippage, rapid withdrawals to self-custody, and swift conversion of a large portion to staked ETH. The cadence of deposits and withdrawals—some clustered over weekends—also lines up with timing observations in MLM’s logs and Arkham’s updates. What remains uncertain is how much further the rotation will go. MLM’s running ledger suggested that at least several thousand BTC were still poised to move: “Additionally, there’s another combined 46.816 BTC ($5.07B) across these wallets: 17MWd [and] 12Xqeq. Of this, another 14.495 BTC ($1.57B) might get rotated based on previous activity, though it’s unclear what will happen with the remaining 32.321 BTC ($3.5B). At this point, it looks like he is rotating everything lol.” At press time, BTC traded at $109,621. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com

Binance has been one of the strongest performers in the crypto market since 2024, consistently setting new highs and establishing itself as a leader among altcoins. Now, BNB sits quietly just below its all-time high of $900, consolidating as bulls continue to show resilience despite broader market uncertainty. The recent pullback in Bitcoin, which fell below key demand levels, has fueled volatility across the market, but Binance has managed to hold its ground, signaling underlying strength. Related Reading: Galaxy Digital Sells 1,167 Bitcoin Amid Ongoing Volatility Adding to this bullish narrative, top analyst Darkfost shared fresh data highlighting a surge in network activity. Since April 2025, the number of active addresses on the BNB network has more than doubled, a striking sign of adoption and usage growth. Today, daily active addresses range between 2 million and 2.5 million, with some spontaneous spikes exceeding 3 million. This robust activity places Binance ahead of other major blockchains, including Ethereum and Bitcoin, when measured by network usage. The growing demand for the BNB chain, coupled with its ability to maintain price stability near record highs, points to strong fundamentals. As adoption accelerates, Binance may be setting the stage for another breakout in the months ahead. Binance Network Activity Surges As Altcoins Prepare For Next Phase According to Darkfost, Binance’s blockchain has quietly moved into a position of dominance in terms of activity, surpassing even some of the most established networks. When compared to Ethereum, Bitcoin, or newer competitors like Base, BNB now leads with a significantly higher number of active addresses. Since April 2025, active daily addresses on the Binance network have consistently ranged between 2 million and 2.5 million, with occasional spikes exceeding 3 million. This doubling of user activity highlights a remarkable growth trajectory for the chain, reinforcing its role as one of the most widely used blockchains in the market. This surge in active addresses has coincided with a sharp increase in transactions. During the same period, daily transactions on the BNB chain have nearly tripled, fluctuating between 10 million and 14 million per day. What’s more impressive is that this growth has come with a relatively low transaction failure rate, reflecting both the efficiency and scalability of the network. Looking ahead, the coming months are expected to be critical for altcoins. Ethereum is currently leading the way with whale accumulation and strong network activity, but large-cap assets like Binance Coin (BNB) are preparing to follow. If current adoption trends persist, BNB could consolidate its position as one of the strongest players in the next stage of the cycle, potentially setting the stage for new highs once broader market volatility stabilizes. Related Reading: Solana Investors Cash Out Nearly $1-B As SOL Tests Key Price Level BNB Consolidates Near Record Highs BNB is trading at $863.7, holding steady just below its all-time high near $900, as shown in the chart. After a strong rally through July and early August, BNB entered a consolidation phase where bulls are defending higher ground while sellers attempt to cap momentum. The 50-day moving average (blue line) is trending sharply upward, reflecting strong short-term momentum, while the 100-day (green) and 200-day (red) moving averages provide solid underlying support in the $730–$670 zone. The chart also highlights that BNB’s recent rally has created a tight consolidation channel between $850 and $875, suggesting that the market is pausing before deciding its next move. A confirmed breakout above $900 would likely trigger a push into price discovery, potentially extending gains if broader market conditions stabilize. On the downside, losing $850 could open a path to retest the $800 level, where the rising 50-day moving average converges with prior support. Related Reading: Ethereum Leads Market While Altcoins Lose Ground – Details BNB’s structure remains bullish, but momentum has cooled after the sharp rally. Traders are closely watching whether consolidation leads to another leg higher, especially as network fundamentals and activity remain strong.
