Speaking of the current rise in whale holdings, the researcher mentioned that it is an optimistic long-term sign and said,
BaroVirtual added that BTC’s price could often move in a sideways trend when the whale’s holding positional value exhibits a new peak, but it creates more demand during a bull market.
Therefore, Bitcoin’s parabolic price rise occurs when the whales gradually reduce their holdings, and retail investors absorb the selling pressure from the market.
Previously, Cointelegraphreportedthat Bitcoin whale accumulation is currently similar to its 2020 trend. The Bitcoin whale ratio on spot exchanges had matched its previous high from 2020, with whale wallets accumulating over 1.5 million BTC over the past six months.
