  • 20,000 BTC in 31pCdkyF6Ep8UkzpkWpv3SMbY3C5s7VhXL
  • 11,200 BTC in 3G98jSULfhrES1J9HKfZdDjXx1sTNvHkhN

The trading firm’s BTC holdings were stored in wallets that had remained inactive since late 2022. These wallets received a substantial sum of 21,600 BTC directly from popular exchanges Binance and Huobi in early October 2022.

It is worth noting that Binance, one of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges, played a significant role in facilitating the movement of BTC for this trading firm.

As FTX, a prominent crypto exchange, temporarily halted withdrawals in early November, the trading firm withdrew an additional 15,000 BTC from their Binance account. This withdrawal further contributed to the movement of funds from their active exchange accounts to their cold wallets, ensuring enhanced security and control over their digital assets.
