An unknown wallet has transferred over $100 million worth of Bitcoin (1,475 BTC) between two previously unknown wallets, with speculation that the addresses belong to Coinbase, the largest crypto exchange in the US. It is believed that the funds were moved from Coinbase Prime (which serves institutional clients) to the exchange's hot wallets. The initial deposit address received the funds from an unknown wallet that was funded by Cumberland, a Chicago-based company facing SEC charges for conducting unregistered cryptocurrency activities. The origin and purpose of this transfer raise questions about whether it belongs to Cumberland or one of its clients and if it is an attempt to unload assets amid the SEC investigation. The implications of these questions could impact the future price of Bitcoin.
