Alameda Research, a cryptocurrency trading firm, has been consistently depositing $WLD tokens to centralized exchanges (CEXs) since August 9.
In four small batches, they have offloaded 698,312 $WLD tokens, valued at $1.13M, to Binance at an average price of $1.622. This move is likely an effort to repay creditors amidst financial difficulties.
