The news follows a report from last week that $19 million worth of crypto had been sent from FTX to exchanges.
Back then, on-chain analytics firm Peckshield reported that around 470,000 SOL tokens, with a value of around $15.5 million, had been moved to different wallets, with some of the funds finding their way to wallets belonging to “CEXs like Binance.”
Weekly selling cap of $50 million
The court overseeing the FTX bankruptcy has allowed the estate to sell crypto worth north of $3 billion in weekly batches of around $50 million with the help of an investment advisor.
The weekly max selling cap is expected to increase to $100 million in the coming weeks, and can later be increased against to $200 million per week.
