Image
Bitcoin (BTC) is observing noticeable spikes in whale transactions worth at least $100,000. Its supply on exchanges witnesses a gradual uptick amid the fight to reclaim $37,000. These spikes in large transactions started earlier this month, data from Santiment confirms. Notably, whale transactions rapidly increased from Nov. 5, eventually crossing the 5,000 mark three days later. As of Nov. 8, Bitcoin recorded up to 7,992 transactions worth $100,000 and above.

Whale bought $5.7b in BTC futures amid Bitcoin ETF fake news

Fake news on Bitcoin ETF, initially posted by Cointelegraph, forced a whale to buy an astounding amount of Bitcoin Futures. A whale made a Bitcoin (BTC) futures purchase of $5.7 billion following the false report suggesting that BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, had obtained approval for a BTC spot exchange-traded fund (ETF).  Ki Young Ju, co-founder and CEO of market resource CryptoQuant, highlighted this development on X. Bitcoin’s pump on the back of the false ETF report had catalyzed a high trading activity and short liquidations. Ju confirmed that the market witnessed $42 million in liquidations. Someone(s) bought ~$5.7B worth of $BTC futures using market orders in an hour, and $42M in short positions were liquidated across all exchanges.https://t.co/JDrkUzPMqq pic.twitter.com/5bMK6Freqm — Ki Young Ju (@ki_young_ju) October 16, 2023 Contrary to initial speculation, this market surge does not qualify as a traditional short squeeze, according t...

Bitcoin Whale Ratio Climbs to 90%, Traders Beware!

The top Bitcoin inflow transactions’ weightage has been increasing. Usually, whenever WHALES accumulate collectively, it is considered as a sign of conviction. However, that might not essentially be the case this time. The connotation changes during bear markets. When this ratio climbs above 0.8, it signals a fake relief rally. With the current number around 0.9, the landscape is becoming more favorable for a mass dump. A recent CryptoQuant Analysis thread on Twitter pointed out, “It’s [It is] an unmistakable sign of selling pressure.” In fact, in the recent past, this inverse correlation has been quite evident. In mid-June, as this ratio dropped, the price initiated an uptrend. Likewise, even during the beginning of 2023, when the exchange whale ratio shrunk, the price rose. So, with the flip trend in play, the current conditions seem ripe for mass dumping. Thus, with BTC already below $30k, traders need to exercise caution. Source: CryptoQuant Als...
