Blockchain tracking firm Lookonchain says that whales – possibly institutional investors – are accumulating a decentralized exchange (DEX) altcoin.
According to Lookonchain, fresh wallets have been accumulating the native token of GMX (GMX), DEX that operates on the Arbitrum (ARB) and Avalanche (AVAX) blockchains offering spot and leveraged trading.
The firm says the entity has already accumulated over $15 million worth of GMX from Binance.
“Whales/institutions are buying GMX, and the price of GMX has increased by ~24% in [two days].
Six fresh wallets withdrew a total of 344,502 GMX ($15.3 million) from Binance in [two days].

Lookonchain has also spotted another whale that is currently in an accumulation phase, this time targeting the frog-themed memecoin Pepe (PEPE) from crypto exchange Kraken.
“A whale bought 231.6 billion PEPE ($2.9 million) from Kraken again.
The whale has bought a total of 750.34 billion PEPE ($8.34 million) from Kraken at an average price of $0.00001111 since Mar 16th.”
During a recent price correction, Lookonchain noticed that crypto investment firm Nascent purchased over $5.85 million worth of PEPE.
At time of writing, PEPE is trading at $0.0000125, down 13% in the last week.
