Transfer Fee Only $3.47
Sending 35,236 BTC, the Binance wallet was the 24th richest Bitcoin wallet in existence before the transaction. Binance only paid $3.47 worth of fees when transferring. As is known, crypto exchanges occasionally move large amounts of digital assets for security purposes.
All of the sending and receiving wallets have been identified by BitInfoCharts as the exchange’s cold wallets. Cold wallets are physical hardware wallets that can keep digital assets completely offline. They are generally considered more secure than software-based and internet-connected hot wallets.
