Fact Check
The statement is directly supported by one source (Source 12), which confirms the sale of 276,000 LINK, the sale value of $6.31 million, and the profit of $140K. However, the confidence score is lowered because other credible sources (Source 1 and Source 2) report the same token sale but with different financial details, citing a sale value of ~$6.38 million and a profit of ~$270,000. This indicates that while the core event occurred, the exact financial figures are disputed.
Summary
A whale has deposited 700,000 LINK, valued at $15.52 million, into Binance, facing a $2.76 million loss. The whale had previously withdrawn 958,108 LINK worth $23.9 million and still holds 258,107 LINK valued at $5.63 million, indicating possible future market action.
