Despite the overall bearish sentiment in the crypto sector, the decentralized finance (DeFi) token Avalanche (AVAX) has experienced a sharp drop in the last 24 hours.
Notably, the price movement has raised questions about its trigger. At one point, the token saw a dramatic 10% drop, with popular crypto analyst ZachXBT sharing insights regarding the decline.
According to data shared by ZachXBT, a whale may be responsible for the movement, having transferred 1.96 million AVAX tokens, valued at approximately $54.2 million, to several significant exchanges and via cross-chain bridges.
The transactions were recorded at Coinbase, Binance, and Gate and through THORChain for bridging a portion of the AVAX tokens across different blockchains.
