1INCH Price Surge Sparks Alleged Manipulation by 1inch Investment Fund After $5M USDC Transfer to Binance

COINOTAG News, November 6, citing EmberCN monitoring, notes that a fund associated with the 1INCH team is under scrutiny for potential market impact on the token. The dataset shows that about eight hours before the move, a transfer of 5 million USDC to Binance occurred, followed by a shift in the token’s price action.

The 1INCH price advanced from 0.152 to 0.196 USDC, a roughly 29% rise, illustrating how sizable inflows can coincide with short-term liquidity dynamics in micro-cap assets. Market participants should consider liquidity depth and timing when assessing such moves.

Over the past two years, the fund has booked profits from short-duration swings: in 2024, entries at 0.24 USDC, exits at 0.53; in 2025, entries at 0.25, exited in August at 0.28. While these figures reflect realized outcomes, they do not guarantee future performance and should be evaluated within robust risk controls.
