In a recent development that has sent shockwaves through the cryptocurrency
community, Justin Sun, the founder of
Tron, has raised eyebrows with a significant withdrawal of $13.8 million worth of Ethereum (ETH) from Binance. The
transaction was highlighted by
PeckShieldAlert, a prominent blockchain
security company, in a tweet that raised
suspicions surrounding the withdrawal.
The tweet mentioned that the address

$13.8 million) from Binance. The mention of "Suspicious Justin Sun related" has
triggered concerns and speculation within
the crypto space, leading many to question the motives behind such a substantial
withdrawal.
As of the latest data, the current price of Ethereum stands at $2,239, reflecting a 1.55% decrease in the last 24 hours. However, the cryptocurrency has witnessed a more significant surge of 7.22% over the past 30 days.

Justin Sun's cryptic moves.
This development comes on the heels of
Justin Sun's earlier notable withdrawals,
where he pulled out 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 announced his decision to actively engage in trading meme coins and promising projects through his public address. The declaration indicated a shift in Sun's investment strategy, opting for more speculative and meme-driven digital assets.
