Another $4.8 million in MATIC left an FTX wallet to an intermediary address, which then transferred a $1.8 million chunk of the tokens to Coinbase, blockchain analytics platform Arkham Intelligence data showed.

Earlier today, some $19 millions worth of crypto including solana [SOL] and ether [ETH] left FTX cold wallets and were deposited to exchanges.

The deposits potentially signal an intention to sell tokens. A U.S. bankruptcy court last month granted FTX permission to sell, stake and hedge its $3.4 billion worth digital asset stash after the company tapped Galaxy Digital to manage the token holdings.

The transactions happened as Sam Bankman-Fried, the founder of FTX and its sister trading firm Alameda Research, was scheduled to testify at his criminal trial Thursday afternoon.
