According to The Blockmultiple sources, including analytics platforms Nansen and Arkham, have flagged the wallet as owned by Wilke.
Last time co-founder of Ethereum translated assets from this address in November 2020. Then he sent 15,000 ETH to the same platform – approximately $9.1 million at the time.
In December 2019, he indirectly confirmed that he had transferred 92,000 ETH (~$11.9 million) to the Kraken exchange.
At the time of writing on the wallet over 150,000 ETH is stored in the amount of about $280 million.
Some members of the crypto community assumed on Twitter that Wilke could block sent coins from staking. However, it is unlikely that the co-founder of Ethereum will use a centralized exchange for this purpose, noted one of the users.
Recall that in May, an unknown address, bought during ICO 8000 ETH (~$14.7 million), transferred all funds to another wallet.
In April, 6071 BTC, held for nine years, began to move.
The previously unknown address moved 2.04 million DOGE that had been stored since December 31, 2013.
