Jump Crypto Swaps 1.1 Million SOL for 2,455 BTC, Pressuring Solana

The rotation coincided with heavy liquidations across crypto following a Fed rate cut.

Overview

  • On October 30, on-chain data tracked by Lookonchain showed Jump Crypto converting roughly 1.1 million SOL into 2,455 BTC.
  • The SOL tranche was valued near $205 million at transfer, while the received Bitcoin was worth about $265 million.
  • Lookonchain reported the unlocked SOL moved to Galaxy Digital as part of the transaction.
