Blockchain analytics website Lookonchain flagged current deals of 2 on-chain addresses supposedly owned by the Polygon Structure. The platform reported that a person of these wallet addresses had actually moved big quantities of MATIC– the Polygon network’s native token– to Binance in the previous 2 days.
According to Lookonchain, the 2 addresses, tagged as “Polygon Structure: 0x8d36” and “Polygon Structure: 0xf957,” have actually jointly moved almost $6 million worth of MATIC to Binance over the previous month, with over half of the quantity transferred onto the exchange in the last 2 days.
Polygon Labs Creator Rejects Discarding MATIC Tokens
In an X post, Polygon Labs creator Sandeep Nailwal promptly refuted the tips that the Polygon Structure might be discarding MATIC tokens on Binance. The creator asserted it was “another” case of improperly identifying wallet addresses.
Nailwal highlighted the requirement to work out care prior to releasing claims of this nature, as they can produce FUD (worry, unpredictability, and doubt) in the crypto neighborhood.
For context, FUD describes the spread of unfavorable– and in some cases incorrect– details about a cryptocurrency or the basic market to produce worry and doubt amongst financiers and possibly impact rates.
It deserves discussing that the creator’s claims line up with the words of Polygon Labs CEO Marc Boiron, who was the very first to raise this concern of wallet mislabeling. Boiron had actually likewise firmly insisted that the Polygon Structure manages none of the addresses.
In reaction to Boiron, Lookonchain mentioned that the crypto intelligence platform Nansen carried out the address labeling.
Wallet Addresses Are Highly Connected To Polygon Structure, Nansen Restates
Nansen responded to the situation, discussing why the 2 wallets were connected to the Polygon Structure. On the other hand, the analytics company put in a robust defense for its address labeling system, declaring that every label goes through a “strenuous documents procedure.”
Going even more in its description, Nansen pointed out some circumstances where popular figures at Polygon Labs connected with the “Polygon Structure: 0x8d36” address. In one example, Polygon’s head of development, Sanket Shah, apparently sent out ETH to the address for “gas functions.”
For the 2nd address, “Polygon Structure: 0xf957”, Nansen stated its counterparties consist of the very first address and other entities carefully related to Polygon, consisting of the head of financial investments, Shreyansh Singh.
Nansen concluded that:
The proof for both of these addresses reveals a really strong link to different people and entities of the Polygon Structure, which’s why we identified these addresses as part of the Polygon Structure.
Regardless Of this, Nansen declares to have actually eliminated the labels “as a gesture of goodwill” given that the Polygon Labs CEO honestly rejected links to the 2 addresses.
