Breaking: US Government Makes First AAVE Transaction In 8 Months

As a seasoned crypto investor with over a decade of experience navigating the wild west that is the blockchain industry, I find myself intrigued by this recent move from the US government. While I can’t help but feel a sense of deja vu given their past interactions with digital assets, the strategic implications are indeed fascinating.


The U.S. government’s recent transaction involving AAVE tokens has sparked concerns about a sell-off, as it marks their first trade in eight months. Data from Arkham Intelligence reveals that this government transaction amounts to approximately $5.4 million.
