Fact Check
The claim is supported most concretely by the fetched PANews article, which explicitly states the wallet deposited 2,540 ETH to Binance after 3 months and that the whale had initially withdrawn 2,550 ETH worth $8 million, implying a realized loss of about $2.4 million. This aligns directly with the user’s statement. The Odaily newsflash was traced to an Onchain Lens X post, indicating a plausible primary source, though the X page itself could not be fetched here, so it cannot be fully validated. Additional corroboration from search snippets for Binance Square, Odaily, and Bitget all repeat the same core numbers and timeline. One user-provided Odaily link traced to a different X account and appears unrelated, which lowers confidence somewhat, but the main claim itself is consistently corroborated by the aligned sources.
