An Ethereum whale has been spotted withdrawing 16,449 Ether valued at approximately $50.3 million from Binance. This transaction occurred as the price of Ether rebounded over $3,000.
According to Spot On Chain, an onchain data provider, the whale’s <a href="https://x.com/spotonchain/status/1810850804754174371" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">activity</a> marks their first significant accumulation of Ether (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/ethereum-price">ETH</a>), with the entire amount moved to a new wallet.

The timing of the withdrawal is notable, with an expected launch of spot Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the United States coming sometime in the next week. In their post on X, Spot On Chain questioned whether the large transfer could be a bullish signal for Ethereum. 
The introduction of an ETF is expected to increase institutional interest and investment in Ether, potentially driving up its price.
Ether’s <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/why-is-ethereum-eth-price-up-today"></a><a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/why-is-ethereum-eth-price-up-today">price surged&nbsp;10.11% to $3,113 on July 9</a>, up from a low of about $2,830 the previous day. The rally happened alongside the release of CoinShares’ weekly report, which showed that Ether-linked investment <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/digital-asset-investments-441-million-inflows">funds received inflows</a>&nbsp;of $10.2 million for the week ending July 5.
