Bitcoin whale quietly accumulates over 56,000 BTC

The latest on-chain data shows that “whales” holding between 10 and 10,000 BTC are quietly increasing their positions significantly. Since 17/12, this large wallet group has accumulated over 56,000 Bitcoin, while retail investors tend to take profits after the recent rally. This contrasting behavior paints a familiar picture of the cryptocurrency market: smart money takes advantage of buying opportunities as selling pressure from retail investors increases.

Historically, the whale accumulation pattern alongside retail investors selling is often seen as a sign of a “bullish divergence.” This indicates that the long-term confidence of institutions and large investors remains intact despite short-term volatility. If this trend continues, the crypto market could be poised for further upward momentum in the near future, with a higher probability of a sustainable growth cycle.
