Fact Check
The claim is strongly supported by the primary source, x post 2049061803448213520, which directly states both withdrawals and their amounts: 4,361 ETH from Kraken and 2,000 ETH from Binance, totaling 6,361 ETH worth about $14.6M. Odaily newsflash 478647 reproduces the same numbers and explicitly references that Lookonchain post. The later Odaily newsflash 478913 mentions 4,472 ETH from Kraken, but it cites a different source and appears to describe a separate later event, so it does not refute the earlier combined-withdrawal claim.

Summary

Lookonchain reported that two Ethereum whale addresses withdrew a combined 6,361 ETH worth about $14.6 million from Kraken and Binance. The activity includes an inactive whale address that moved 4,361 ETH worth about $9.98 million after three months and a newly created address that withdrew 2,000 ETH worth about $4.58 million. This adds a second large exchange withdrawal to the previously reported 4,361 ETH transfer from Kraken and broadens the event from a single-wallet move to multiple whale withdrawals across two exchanges.
