FTX Estate Wallet Receives Another Monthly SOL Transfer
Arkham Intelligence data showed the Alameda-linked address withdrew the SOL from staking before sending the full balance onward. After confirmation, the estate-controlled wallet received every token.
ALAMEDA JUST MOVED $16M OF SOL
Alameda Research just unstaked $16M of SOL and sent it to an address that distributes SOL to creditors.
The last time they did this was 1 month ago. Will they be distributing this as well? pic.twitter.com/8BoPwL1532

That wallet has handled repeated asset transfers during the bankruptcy process. It routes holdings for distributions, and it also sends assets to exchanges when needed.
This transfer followed a similar March transaction. In that move, Alameda unstaked about 197,000 SOL, worth roughly $17 million, and sent it to the same wallet.
The FTX estate still holds a large Solana position despite the latest release. Recent reports placed Alameda-linked holdings near 3.5 million SOL after recent transfers.
Those tokens were valued between $294 million and $320 million in recent estimates. Even so, the estate has reduced exposure through regular monthly unstaking batches.
Since FTX collapsed in 2022, the estate has redeemed several staking positions in similar tranches. Earlier withdrawals included 192,000 SOL and 196,611 SOL, based on cited reports.
Those earlier batches carried values of about $45 million and $16 million at transfer time. The estate prepared those tokens for distribution or sale.
Solana Price Stays Flat as the Estate Continues Repayments
Court filings direct the bankruptcy team to marshal and monetize liquid assets for creditor claims. That effort has already moved more than $1 billion in SOL.
The estate has not sold all released tokens at once. Instead, it has spread transfers across addresses and exchanges, including Coinbase and Binance.
The latest unstake produced little immediate movement in Solana’s market price. During the period, SOL traded roughly flat around the low-$80 range.
Traders have seen repeated FTX-linked SOL transfers since late 2022. As a result, scheduled unlocks now arrive without the sharp reactions seen earlier.
The current transfer fits that established pattern, and it points to another controlled release. Arkham’s tracking identified the sending wallet as connected to Alameda.
The repayment process remains court-supervised, and asset movements continue under that framework. The destination wallet has repeatedly received tokens earmarked for creditor distributions.
This weekend’s transfer added another 198,425 SOL to that pool. At the time of the move, the batch was worth about $16 million.
Estate records have framed these transfers as steps toward approved distributions. For now, on-chain data shows the SOL left staking and reached the estate wallet over the weekend.
