🔴 $180 Million Worth of AVAX Flows to Coinbase in Six Months; Users Ask ‘Why?’
Avalanche is trading around $9.07, down 3.35% in 24 hours, and the price weakness is only part of the story. On-chain data showing $180 million worth of AVAX sent to Coinbase over the past six months is raising uncomfortable questions about who is selling and why.
