According to @ai_9684xtpa, a notable whale wallet 0xB47...A5aFd executed a significant purchase of 95.84 WBTC with $10 million USDT on-chain three hours ago at an average price of $104,329 per WBTC.

Since May, this whale has sold a cumulative 15,470 ETH worth $37.69 million, with an average deposit price of $2,436 (source: @ai_9684xtpa via Twitter).
