Ethereum remains in the spotlight due to its vast dominance over the broader cryptocurrency market. According to the available data, the ETH Network has the highest number of listed crypto-based projects.
Lookonchain, a blockchain analysis firm, noted in its September 06 X post that it has identified another 1000 ETH transaction by the Ethereum Foundation. The transfer was initiated to a multisig wallet, “0xbC9a.”

As per additional information post-transaction, the Ethereum Foundation will swap the transferred Ethereum into DAI. The multisig wallet that received ETH from the foundation will further transfer them to the wallet “0xd779” for conversion purposes.
Market experts claim that these types of transactions are initiated to stabilize the price of the token/coin or to swap some digital currency in stablecoin for backing purposes.
The co-founder of Ethereum always remains in the spotlight for his frequent transactions; he is also famous for his massive donations of digital assets. In August 2024, Vitalik Buterin made several transactions to a multisig wallet.
Also, he transferred a significant amount of ETH to Railgun in the last week of the previous month; however, Lookonchain reported the event. On August 19, 2024, Todayq noted that Buterin had moved 400 Ether to Railgun.
