we don't just have to believe stories about quick and easy withdrawals,
we can simply check the transaction history and take our own look at incoming and outgoing hotwallet transactions.
I had already plotted the balance for the ETH hotwallet address a few weeks ago when we were discussing hot reserves and how much cca would be available at any time to be withdrawn immediately.
Let's take another look at the wallet balance over time, in regard to the recent surge in ETH high rollers and their transactions, which are reflected in the chart and imo very interesting to look at.
The first spike up after block 6.1M is a deposit made by Kirkby, the spike down shortly after is their instantly processed withdrawal.
What happens towards the end and why the current hotwallet balance is close to 4k ETH is something that wasn't mentioned in this thread yet, but let's just say the recent betting volume was insane.
