BlackRock transferred 47,500 Ethereum worth around $140 million to a major custodial platform early today, according to data from Arkham Intelligence.

Ethereum was trading at $2,954 at press time, down over 6% in the last 24 hours. The digital asset dipped below $3,000 on Monday amid a market-wide selloff that saw Bitcoin sink under $86,000.
