Cryptocurrency teams sometimes buy tokens available in the market. Recently, the 1INCH team, ranked 140th by market volume, made such a move. However, this was not the only action they took.
1INCH Team Buys Tokens
The 1INCH team has historically made significant sales. Recently, they reversed this trend. According to Spot on Chain, the team purchased over 9 million tokens.
What makes this significant is that it was the second purchase in recent hours, complicating the situation.
Following this news, Lookonchain revealed another recent purchase by the team, acquiring 7.96 million 1INCH tokens for approximately $1.75 million. The common factor in these moves is that the buyers perfectly timed the market lows.
According to Lookonchain, the price of 1INCH quickly rose after the purchase, breaking $0.27 and surpassing $0.28.
