This development comes on the heels of Justin Sun's earlier notable withdrawals, where he&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/tron-founder-justin-sun-withdraws-77-billion-shiba-inu-shib-following-500-billion-withdrawal-whats" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pulled out</a> massive amounts of Shiba Inu (SHIB) tokens from Binance. The first withdrawal involved a staggering 500 billion SHIB tokens, followed by another withdrawal of approximately 77 billion SHIB tokens. These transactions had already raised eyebrows within the crypto community, prompting discussions about Sun's strategic moves on the market.
Adding to the intrigue, on May 11, Justin Sun&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/justinsuntron/status/1656598894158159872?s=20" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">announced</a> his decision to actively engage in trading meme coins and promising projects through his public address.

The latest Ethereum withdrawal only adds to the growing concerns and speculations surrounding Justin Sun's cryptocurrency activities. The crypto community is now closely monitoring further statements or actions from Sun that may shed light on his motives and intentions behind these significant transactions.
