BlockBeats News, July 29th, Trader Eugene Ng Ah Sio posted on his personal channel stating that he personally believes that the recent strong price performance of SUI may be related to insider positioning in the "SUI Treasury News" trading (although the extent of the impact is difficult to quantify). Based on this assessment, although he does not believe this will constitute a significant bearish signal, due to the inability to accurately assess how much of the market has already front-run this news, he has chosen to take profit and close his long position.
BlockBeats previously reported that today, non-bank loan company and financial firm Mill City Ventures III, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MCVT) announced that it has entered into a securities purchase agreement to invest in publicly traded equity in a private placement transaction, purchasing and selling 83,025,830 shares of common stock at a price of $5.42 per share, with an expected total proceeds of approximately $450 million (net of placement agent fees and other issuance expenses). The company plans to use approximately 98% of the net proceeds from the private placement to acquire the native token SUI of Sui Blockchain and approximately 2% of the net proceeds to support the company's short-term lending business. SUI will serve as the company's primary financial reserve asset.
