Who are the Uniswap Whales?

SpotOnChain's analysis revealed that the wallet address ending in '0x63b', which originally received 9 million UNI tokens in September 2020, was pivotal in these transactions. The distribution of these tokens originated from the team's allocation, including investors and advisors, as per the project's tokenomics. This substantial sale did not deter other large holders, known as whales, who quickly bought up the available tokens.

Why No Price Drop?

Contrary to expectations, the sales did not lead to a price decline, which was well-received by investors. The data showed that the '0x63b' address transferred 5.98 million UNI to Coinbase Prime at an average price of $8.26 on July 4, translating to $49.4 million. On a single day, a notable transaction involved 1.21 million UNI worth $9.64 million.
