695,000 Perpetual Protocol (PERP) tokens worth $423,000
767,000 Biconomy (BICO) tokens worth $182,000
833,000 Kyber Network (KNC) tokens worth $616,000
108 million TrueFI (TRU) tokens worth $420,000
138,000 Band (BAND) tokens worth $221,000
2.5 million Graph (GRT) tokens worth $273,000
845 Maker (MKR) tokens worth $1.17 million
7.16 million Render (RNDR) tokens worth $17.8 million

23,000 Polygon (MATIC) tokens worth $15,000
9.5 million Ren (REN) tokens worth $500,000
1.1 million ETH tokens worth $2 million

The report also highlights an additional 1.6 million SOL tokens worth $57.6 million that have initiated the unstaking process. While these funds have not yet left the associated wallet, their potential movement could bring the total SOL tokens moved by FTX to just under $90 million. Taking into account the unstaking of SOL and the new assets transferred to Coinbase and Finance, the total value of funds moved by FTX now stands at $156 million.

Nansen’s previous investigation disclosed significant transfers from wallets connected to FTX and Alameda Research, FTX’s trading arm. These funds were initially withdrawn from FTX and Alameda wallets, sent to intermediary wallets, and eventually deposited into Binance and Coinbase. The report discloses the following noteworthy movements:

2.2 million USD worth of Chainlink (LINK) tokens
1 million USD worth of Aave (AAVE) tokens
2 million USD worth of Maker (MKR) tokens
3.4 million USD worth of Ethereum (ETH) tokens

Additionally, Nansen’s investigation uncovered that 943,000 SOL tokens, equivalent to approximately $32 million, were moved from the FTX Cold Storage wallet.

Conclusion

These recent findings by Nansen regarding the movement of funds from wallets associated with the bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX have raised concerns within the cryptocurrency community.
