HTX, the Justin Sun-advised crypto exchange, has been rapidly redeeming massive quantities of wrapped bitcoin (WBTC). This started on November 24 with HTX redeeming approximately 5,182 bitcoins and has continued with the additional redemption of 2,166 bitcoins on December 1. Both of these transactions were unusual to observe, given that WBTC has no 24-hour volume on HTX. Additionally, there is no WBTC included in the proof-of-reserves for HTX.
