Fact Check
The claim is directly corroborated by the primary source, the EmberCN X post (@EmberCN), which I confirmed via X archive search matches word-for-word: 429,000 UNI sold for 929.3 ETH (~$1.75M), ~$320K profit, 629,000 UNI accumulated at avg $3.34 in June-July, and UNI rebound from $2.4 to $4.4. Three independent crypto newsflashes (PANews, Odaily, BlockBeats) all report the same figures and cite the same source. A web search confirms UNI's late-July/early-August 2026 rally, consistent with the described rebound. The whale/analyst attribution and all numeric details align precisely.
