A huge number of ether (ETH) tokens have just moved from a wallet associated with the PlusToken Ponzi scheme. More than $105,099,000 worth of the native crypto asset of the Ethereum network moved between the wallet and an unknown one earlier today.
The Twitter account Whale Alert (@whale_alert) highlighted the huge transfer this morning. The total number of Ether moved was a massive 789,525 ETH.Source link hereThis is something that we feared the most, unless you are a buyer waiting for your buy order to be filled.Whale Alert keeps monitoring the wallet that are being used by PlusToken, and it's now being moved to an unknown wallet. I remember that time when I was in Singapore, one weird looking guy approached me and introduced me to PlusToken. As what I have seen in their compensation plan, I immediately moved away and said "No, I'll pass!". Ponzis are not for me. I just feel sorry for those who are being victimized by PlusToken.

Maybe this is the reason. But they moved to unknown wallet,is that address from an exchanger or personal? If they sold all eth then this is the main reason. Another reason can be btc dumped.last 7days btc dumped,it can be a reason for dumping eth.Sorry for plustoken investors.

Until now, the price of ETH has been growing quite well, but if that amount of ETH is released on the market, the price of ETH will probably drop sharply. Perhaps people should be cautious before deciding to buy eth around this time.

I am not sure about this. According to the media reports, the dump by the scammers started a few weeks back. But when I check the charts, I can see that Bitcoin is up by around 6%. Some of the other cryptocurrencies have also gained value. From what we know, the Plus Token scam involved the following amounts:
180,000 BTC 6,400,000 ETH 111,000 USDT 53 OMG
This is a partial/incomplete list, but you can see that BTC is among the stolen funds. So I am really surprised with the Bitcoin rally today.

Surely the owners of those coins won't want to dump all the coins at once and tank the price? What incentive do they have to cash out at the moment (and draw attention to themselves)?

this could not be the only reason for the drop, there are many factors determining the price(it might be used to spread the fud to pressure bitcoin). there is no way they will be able to sell it at once because their address is tracked.

Definitely it is not the only reason why ETH price is dropping. Rather it is probably the most prominent reason among others which is bringing the price down. I am not saying this! Chainanalysis has recently published an article on the same and you may read it below, https://blog.chainalysis.com/reports/plustoken-scam-bitcoin-priceChina police has arrested 6 people till date but many are still outside the reach of the law who were associated with plustoken! With a whooping $2 billion they have stripped from the common people, it is very much possible to manipulate and bring down the price!

I don't think it will affect much to the current ethereum market price or even in the future. How many times we have seen such scenarios or even worst than that but ethereum was able to stay strong keep giving us what it is expected to give. With the ethereum welcoming the Istambul, I would say that Ethereum value would still increase its value.

So definitely this transfer kinds of confirms that plus token will soon be scam as it has transferred millions of the investors eth to their private wallet which they can sell anytime and investors will have to be deprived of their precious eth and this again teaches us that we should always stay away from such ponzi schemes.

Plus token is busted already and it would not create any much difference to the prices. Thought the demand could have increased further and so the price if the ponzi had run for more time, there's no reason for the prices to drop as well. We could see the general trend of price change alongside other crypto but the real price of Ethereum would be decided by the success of it's new update.

The amount is so large that it can affect the market if they sell it. The question here where they want to convert those eth , if they want to only transfer ETH to other wallet then there will be no price differense even how large are you storing as long as no one sell it , nothing to be affraid about the price.

Until now, the ETH has not been moved to exchanges yet, so the recent declines have nothing to do with this news. But be careful because this ETH has been moved and it will probably be sold in the next few weeks, and if it happens then I believe ETH will go down to 80$ again.

If they dumped at the same time ETH will be in big trouble Ever since the ICO went through the heyday of the ETH coin has been subject to criticism from the community, people don't seem too keen on it. If the continuous pour of ETH takes place I think that ETH will face a big discount. ETH coins need to upgrade technology and limit junk ICOs if they want to attract trust from investors.

I just heard the name plustoken and immediately looked for references about plustoken in, surprised when several articles or news that stated that plustoken was ponzi. Some news said that plustoken is the cause of the market fall or dumping that occurred in the last few days. Quite reasonable, because the scammers already have so many assets from his ponzi business. sad and this reminds me of the bitconnect incident.

I dont think that has an effect on Ethereum because Ethereum price was swinging through the Bitcoin movement. Just like what happened recently, it was tied up by the price of the Bitcoin movement. But I hope everything will be fine even there is a huge transaction of ethereum this morning. There are a lot of scammed projects related to ERC20 and that was base on ethereum, but so far I did not see so far the market price that ethereum drop while Bitcoin pump. They are the same movement.

There's no fault of the coin or blockchain if people are naive enough to jump into a ponzi. I too think the ponzi was just creating a increased number of transaction but had no significant effect on the price of Ethereum. It was not as popular in other parts of world and it got stopped before they ran away with most of those coins.
