Remember when people wondered if the guy who turned $ 8,000 into $ 5 billion really lost access to his wallet? Turns out he didn’t and just started moving. “

According to data from CoinGecko, these moves have put downward pressure on the price, which is down 31.2% against its ATH seven days ago and 10.8% in the last 24 hours.
