Onchain analyst Ai Yi linked a second dormant ether wallet to an early buyer who paid about $18 per coin, raising suspected sales since August 2025 to roughly 6,000 ETH. The newer wallet moved 3,000 ETH, worth about $7.23 million, to a Kraken deposit address on Oct. 22. Ai Yi marked address 0xa4c…F02D0 on Oct. 23, citing matching purchase timing, funding source and deposit method with a previously tracked wallet. If confirmed, all 6,000 ETH were deposited at an average price of $2,642.42, for an estimated return above 139x and profit over $15.74 million. The earlier wallet moved 3,000 ETH from Gemini about nine years ago, sat idle until August 2025, then sold in batches.
