One apparent Bitcoin whale in the cryptocurrency industry has just moved $313M out of Bittrex. With no test transaction beforehand, some are concerned it may be a hack.

Transfers in the hundreds of millions of dollars are becoming more and more common on the Bitcoin network. Today, yet another whale moved about 43,564 BTC ($313M) from the cryptocurrency exchange Bittrex.

Whale Alerts (@whale_alert) reported on the transfer earlier today. In total, the fee for the transaction was just $1.00. However, the withdrawal likely only cost Bittrex’s withdrawal fee of 0.0005 BTC.
