The wallet, identified by the partial address \u201cTWGHNc,\u201d has attracted attention for its significant activities. Last Sunday, this wallet withdrew 500 million USDT in Tether from HTX, previously known as Huobi. Adding to the intrigue, the same wallet made a substantial deposit of 50 million USDT into Binance today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.80 --><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">1\/ In the past 32 hours, someone bought a total of 54,721 <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24ETH&#038;src=ctag&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$ETH<\/a> ($154.4M) from <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Binance?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Binance<\/a> and <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/DEX?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#DEX<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Who is this guy?
