NFT whale Jeffrey Hwang, commonly known as Machi Big Brother, cursed at Blur after receiving 6 million tokens worth around $2.9 million. On Feb. 25, Hwang sold 1,010 NFTs in 48 hours in what some consider the largest NFT dump ever. Nansen’s Andrew Thurman said it could be “one big wash trade” to generate profits through the Blur airdrop, as Hwang almost immediately bought back 991 of the NFTs.
