Blockchain sleuth @OnchainDataNerd has reported that earlier today, a whale awakened after three years of zero activity and made a big transfer of ETH to the Binance exchange.

Dormant whale moves millions in ETH to Binance 

The whale deposited 4,500 ETH currently worth almost $7 million in fiat to Binance while the coin's price still remained at $1,542.

@OnchainDataNerd pointed out that this whale had purchased 11,900 ETH in total for $2.89 million back in June 2020 on the Bitfinex exchange. Three years ago, the whale paid $243 per Ether, and now the coin's price has gone up by more than six times.

If he sells all his Ethereum bought then now, the profit will constitute $15.56 million, per @OnchainDataNerd's X post.
