【ChainNews】A seasoned holder who has been active in the Ethereum ecosystem since 2016 has once again attracted market attention. According to on-chain data monitoring, this address recharged 14,183 ETH to a major exchange 40 minutes ago, which is worth approximately $41.93 million at the current price.
This operation is highly significant — it is the first large-scale deposit of over a million dollars by this address in three years. Looking back at historical records, his last large-scale accumulation occurred between February and November 2022, with an average purchase cost as low as $1,236.65, well below today’s price.
Even more interestingly, if you continue to trace the transaction history of this wallet, you can go all the way back to 2016, which means he is a true witness to the ETH ecosystem. The long-term holding + historically low-cost combination explains why this recharge has caused a stir in the market.

Bought for 1236 yuan, now it's worth several thousand. This big brother probably isn't trying to dump the market...
Been playing ETH since 2016, really impressive, I'm here to learn.
What does depositing into the exchange mean? Want to sell? Or just moving it somewhere? It's a bit complicated.
Throwing over 40 million USD all at once, with this kind of move, I'm just watching.
No activity for three years, and now suddenly moving, definitely has a plan, gotta keep an eye on it.

A true old-timer in the game, been accumulating ETH since 2016, such a move... The cost of $1236 has now multiplied how many times?

Sell? This guy's cost is $1236, and he's still willing to sell... If he's not trying to run away, then he's really seen something.

Sold? Or still trying to dump the market? Whale movements take a long time to figure out.
