Bitcoin Whale Accumulation Soars as Retail Investors Sell

Recent data reveals a stark contrast in Bitcoin trading behavior. While large whales (holding 10-10,000 BTC) have amassed over 83,105 BTC in the last month, individual investors and smaller wallets have shed significant positions. This shift suggests growing confidence among larger players as retail investors take profits, according to Santiment’s on-chain analysis. Bitcoin’s daily trading volume surged from $16 billion to over $27 billion following a US-China tariff breakthrough, further highlighting the role of large whales in market trends.
