According to on-chain data analyst Yu Jin, crypto investor James Fickel executed an ETH transfer of 39,800 ETH (approximately $172 million) to Coinbase Prime roughly four hours ago, as reflected in block-level movement and custody records.
Chain metrics indicate Fickel recorded a net shortfall of about 20,600 ETH over the past year tied to long exposure on the ETH/BTC exchange rate, a performance outcome visible in on-chain position tracking and wallet-level reconciliations.
Post-transfer custody data shows his Coinbase Prime wallet retains roughly 57,000 ETH (near $249 million), underscoring the sizeable Ethereum balance under institutional custody and relevant for market liquidity analysis.
