Fact Check
The claim is fully supported by on-chain tracking data from OnchainLens and subsequent reporting by PANews. The specific amounts (1,133.65 BTC and 15,405 ETH) and the total valuation (~$110 million) match the evidence found. The discrepancy between the title's figures ($71.1M total) and the content's figures ($110M total) is explained by the content itself, which notes that the $110M figure is an update to a previously reported smaller movement.
