According to blockchain analytics platform Spot on Chain, Sun allegedly purchased 361,000 ETH (worth $1.1 billion) over the past five months. The investments were made through three different wallet addresses.
Potential Loss
With the Ethereum price drop, Sun’s alleged investments have lost an estimated $66 million.
