There are published claims in news analyses that Wintermute "transferred about 700 million dollars" to Binance before a widespread liquidation occurred in the cryptocurrency market.
For example, an article on CoinPedia said: "Wintermute moved $700 million to Binance hours before crash."
Additionally, Protos analysis indicated that "there are claims that Wintermute deposited a huge amount (~ $700 m) in Binance before the collapse."
However, these sources often rely on "observations of tagged wallets" or analyses from third parties, rather than an official statement from Wintermute or Binance explicitly confirming them.

❓ What cannot be confirmed / is still ambiguous
Despite the numerous claims, there is still no official confirmation from Wintermute or Binance that a transfer of such magnitude occurred exactly as stated, or that the purpose was what is rumored as "platform pumping" or "hidden liquidation".
There is not enough public data that conclusively links the amount of $700 million from the Wintermute wallet to the Binance wallet within a known and established framework according to available sources.
The subject suffers from an "analytical/speculative" nature rather than "official confirmation." For example, the explanation in Protos states that Wintermute ignored the "big issues" in its official analysis despite those claims.
I have not yet found reliable sources that refer to the same type of transfer specifically to Coinbase, although some articles mentioned Coinbase in the context of liquidation or flows, but not as a confirmed large transfer from Wintermute to Coinbase.

🔍 Summary
It can be said: Yes, there is a strong claim that Wintermute moved large amounts of money to Binance before the market liquidation or collapse — but these claims have not been fully substantiated officially, and remain within the realm of "chain monitoring + external analysis" rather than "official company statement".()#GateSeptemberTransparencyReportComing
