What happened
Larry Ellison has cancelled a plan to sell as many as 50 million Oracle shares, according to a report from Cailianshe.
Following the news, Oracle stock contracts traded on a crypto platform rose 2%.
Why it matters
The cancellation removes a potentially large source of share supply that the market had been expecting, which may explain the positive reaction in Oracle-linked contracts.
The move is notable because the contracts that reacted are traded on a crypto platform rather than a traditional exchange, suggesting crypto-based equity exposure is drawing attention around major corporate news.
