According to blockchain analytics platform Arkham (@arkham), two wallets associated with Justin Sun received PEPE in two transactions from Poloniex on October 17 and 26: 7.2 trillion tokens (approximately $28.44 million) on October 17, and 4.65 trillion tokens (approximately $20.32 million) on October 26, totaling approximately $48.76 million. These tokens were allegedly originally purchased from Binance, subsequently routed through Poloniex and HTX before flowing back into Poloniex, and ultimately transferred to Justin Sun's wallets. During the same period, between October 15 and 25, Justin Sun deposited $77 million worth of stablecoins to Poloniex in six transactions, including $60 million in USDT and $17 million in USDC. These funds were previously redeemed from Spark/AAVE and Sky, respectively. Prior to October 17, Justin Sun held only about $267,000 worth of PEPE (68 billion tokens). The current combined value of the two wallets' holdings is approximately $51.01 million, up by over $2 million since receipt, accounting for roughly 2.82% of PEPE's total supply and representing 2.2% of his $2.29 billion on-chain wealth.
According to on-chain analyst Ai Yi, a wallet tagged as linked to Sun Yuchen (0x721…E5991) withdrew 4.65 trillion PEPE from Poloniex 10 hours ago. The address currently holds a total of 11.8 trillion PEPE, with an average withdrawal price of $0.000004114, representing an unrealized profit of $2.085 million. Since October 17, the related addresses have transferred out a cumulative $48.76 million. The token transfer path was: withdrawn from Binance, deposited to Poloniex, then routed to HTX, returned to Poloniex, and finally withdrawn to this address. Both HTX and Poloniex are exchanges owned by Sun Yuchen, and it is currently impossible to determine whether the relevant funds belong to Sun Yuchen's personal wallet or exchange funds.

Chloe (@ChloeTalk1), a columnist for HTX DeepThink and researcher at HTX Research, analyzes that the current macro framework for the crypto market has shifted from “liquidity trades awaiting rate cuts” to a constraining environment characterized by “higher-for-longer interest rates + sticky inflation + war-related shocks.” According to the latest Reuters survey, most economists have pushed back their expectations for rate cuts to after September, with nearly one-third believing no cuts will occur this year. The primary reason is that the Middle East conflict has driven up energy prices, pushing inflation trajectories higher once again and thereby constraining the Federal Reserve’s policy space. This shift directly undermines the two key narratives previously supporting crypto assets: expectations of liquidity easing and a declining interest-rate path. Elevated oil prices, coupled with consecutive upward revisions to PCE inflation expectations, increase the likelihood that interest rates will remain high—or even extend their elevated period—leading to a higher discount rate and shrinking risk budgets. As a result, marginal capital inflows into the crypto market are diminishing, and high-volatility assets broadly face mounting pressure.
