The same address purchased $125 million worth of Bitcoin last week, laying the groundwork for Terra’s long-term plan to acquire $10 billion BTC for its reserves.
Cermak, VP of Research at The Block, estimated that there is around $610 million left in the Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) wallet which is likely being managed by Jump Trading.
Meanwhile, the Bitcoin wallet associated with LFG holds more than 33,000 BTC worth around $1.5 billion.
The last Bitcoin buy fuelled a 10% single-day rally for LUNA, sending it to a new all-time high ahead of $105 on March 29.
Price Action: According to data from Benzinga Pro, Bitcoin was trading at $45,480, down 2.5% in the last 24 hours. LUNA was trading at $117, gaining 1.61% over the same period.
