Ethereum co-founder, Vitalik Buterin, transfers $15M worth of USDC to Gemini.

In a blockchain investigation worthy of Sherlock Holmes, experts recently uncovered a transaction that left us all speechless. None other than Ethereum co-founder and wunderkind, Vitalik Buterin, transferred a staggering $14.9 million worth of USD Coin (USDC) to the renowned cryptocurrency exchange Gemini. Forget grabbing popcorn; this is a financial thriller you won’t want to miss!

According to our trusty source, PeckShield, Now we all know Vitalik is a crypto genius, but this time he really outdid himself. He sent a jaw-dropping $14.93 million to Gemini from his wallet “Vitalik.eth.” You better prepare yourself for some serious crypto excitement!

But don’t think we just blindly accept rumors. Oh no! We verified this mind-boggling transaction on Etherscan ourselves, so you can rest assured that the excitement is real. Here’s the link, in case you don’t believe us: PeckShield.

But wait, there’s more! Vitalik also received a whopping $14.93 million USDC earlier from Kanro, a charity affiliated with him. Talk about spreading the love while keeping those cryptocurrency coffers filled, am I right?

And as if that wasn’t enough, our brilliant crypto detective work uncovered another shocking detail. Just a few days before the mind-boggling $14.9 million transfer, our favorite blockchain guru sent nearly $500,000 to Coinbase. That’s enough to make you drop your coffee and take a second look!

Now, you might be wondering, how did the price of Ethereum’s native currency Ether (ETH) react to the news of this crypto extravaganza? Well, hold onto your seats because the price held steady, falling only 0.68% in the past four hours. No wild rollercoaster ride for ETH this time!

But let’s not forget, this is not the first time Buterin made a splash with his crypto acrobatics. In recent months, he’s been showering the world with ETH deposits to centralized exchanges. The sum of all these extraordinary transfers from his wallets reaches a mind-blowing $3.9 million in September alone. Just imagine the possibilities!

One notable instance that had everyone gasping was when Buterin sent a jaw-dropping 400 ETH (worth $600,000 back then) to Coinbase on September 24. And before that, our beloved crypto genius made a transaction valued at a staggering 600 ETH ($1 million!) on August 21. It’s like a thriller novel, only this time the protagonist is a brilliant blockchain enthusiast!
