As of Jan. 22, The Ethereum Foundation, supporting the Ethereum (ETH) ecosystem, has executed a substantial ETH swap amid the cryptocurrency’s declining value.
The organization reportedly exchanged over $1.5 million worth of ETH for the DAI stablecoin, initiating the swap just before ETH’s price fell below $2,400.
According to data from Etherscan, the ETH Foundation sold 700 ETH on Cow Protocol, amounting to $1.68 million when ETH was priced at $2,409. In return, the organization acquired 1.68 million DAI tokens. This move coincided with significant declines in today’s trading session.
Additionally, substantial activity by major ETH whales indicates a potential sell-off that could further impact prices. According to Whale Alert, a recent transaction involved the dumping of 27,729 ETH, valued at $66.19 million, to Binance from an undisclosed wallet.
