Not Surprising
It is not surprising to see a whopping amount of ETH deposited to Binance. Ethereum is expected to undergo a significant upgrade, ultimately leading to the network’s transition from a Proof-of-Work algorithm to a Proof-of-Stake.
The Ethereum team has speculated that the Merge will occur around September 13 – 15, 2022. With the upgrade happening soon, the price of Ethereum is expected to fluctuate heavily in the hours leading up to the upgrade as investors may favor the “sell the news” trading strategy.
