Although the owner of the coins and the purpose of the transfer are unknown, Twitter users made their suggestions in the comments on the Whale Alert post. One user wrote that they were “Silkroad coins” and another joked that someone decided to “retire.” The value of the translated coins at the current exchange rate exceeds $ 280 million.
