According to on-chain analyst Ember (@EmberCN), after Lido launched its $LDO buyback program, whales/institutions allegedly followed suit by purchasing 4.5 million $LDO (approximately $1.86 million) and 10,000 $AAVE (approximately $1.15 million) via OTC deals; the tokens originated from Wintermute and FalconX.
According to on-chain analyst Yujin (@EmberCN), 4.82 million LDO tokens—worth approximately $1.81 million—were withdrawn from Binance early this morning and transferred to a multisig wallet managed by the Lido Growth Committee; this wallet is designated for executing buyback operations. Lido approved a proposal three days ago authorizing up to 10,000 stETH to be used for repurchasing LDO. Additionally, the Growth Committee announced the execution parameters for its first buyback—1,000 stETH—two days ago. Furthermore, this multisig wallet also received 4.82 million LDO from market maker Portofino early this morning.
