236,237 BTC. That’s the amount of known selling of bitcoin since May 10th by large institutions. Most of the selling is related to forced selling, and some is not. pic.twitter.com/wNLjgvvFmn— Vetle Lunde (@VetleLunde) July 21, 2022
What else does Lunde say? According to the expert, “it all started with Do Kwon.” Lunde believes that the collapse of the Terra ecosystem he founded led to a massive crisis in the cryptocurrency market. In the chart, the analyst noted that the liquidation of TerraUSD's (UST) stablecoin security in bitcoins by the Luna Foundation Guard (LFG) was the largest — 80 393 BTC were sold. The other day, US electric car manufacturer Tesla also sold 29 060 BTC. The Canadian exchange fund Purpose BTC sold 24 510 bitcoins.
The co-founders of bankrupt cryptocurrency hedge fund Three Arrows Capital also noted that the bitcoin selloff by LFG to maintain UST parity with the US dollar caused many digital assets to plummet.
What is known about Arcane Research? It is a subsidiary of Arcane Crypto, a Norwegian investment company that conducts analysis and research on cryptocurrencies, digital assets and blockchain.
