A wallet linked to the founder of Polygon has sparked discussions among traders and market participants after transferring a significant amount of POL (formerly MATIC) tokens to the Binance exchange. Recent on-chain data indicates that approximately 10 million tokens, valued at around $6.97 million, were directed to the crypto exchange. This action raises concerns about a potential selling narrative involving one of the founders.
Transfer to Binance Exchange
According to a post by Onchain Lens on December 6, a wallet connected to the Polygon founder transferred 10 million POL tokens to Binance, with the wallet address recorded as 0x883….654332. Notably, this wallet had previously acquired 20 million of the same tokens from Polygon, valued at about $8.09 million, three weeks prior. Subsequently, the entire token quantity was deposited into Binance.
Additionally, the same wallet address received 50 million tokens, worth approximately $35.79 million, from the founder’s multi-signature wallet just two days ago before sending 10 million POL tokens to Binance. The transfer of such large amounts to a crypto exchange typically raises significant market concerns due to the increased supply on the exchange, leading to speculation that this may be for selling purposes. The wallet currently holds 30 million tokens, valued at around $20.64 million.
How is the Token Performing?
At the time of writing, the POL price experienced a decline of about 4% within the day, currently trading at $0.6820. The 24-hour low and high prices were recorded at $0.6618 and $0.7188, respectively. The downward movement of the altcoin appears to align with the increased supply caused by the aforementioned transfers.
However, the token has shown gains of 17% and 56% on the weekly and monthly charts, respectively. This broader positive movement creates conflicting sentiments following the previously mentioned selling-like transactions.
Lastly, the impacts of these developments on the Polygon ecosystem and the token market are being closely monitored. Market participants consider such data to evaluate market dynamics and future movements.
