Bitcoin’s Biggest Whale Begins To Decrease Rapidly: Report

Bitcoin‘s largest whales are starting to fall quickly, but smaller whales are reproducing even faster, so today we read more on our latest bitcoin news.

The number of BTC whales at 1000 BTC or more has hit the lowest level since 2021, while the number of whales at 100-1000 BTC has multiplied in recent months. BTC has been steadily accepted by a number of giant institutions around the world this year, and some of the cryptocurrency’s rarest and largest sea creatures are at risk as Bitcoin’s largest whale sinks to zero. Blockchain journalist Colin Wu tweeted data from blockchain measurement website Glassnode this afternoon and it appears that the number of BTC addresses at 1000 BTC or more is at a record low of 82.

The last time that number was this low was in December 2012 when Bitcoin hit the market. Only 81 wallets hold 1000 BTC or more and each BTC is worth $ 13.51. The number one cryptocurrency by market capitalization is worth $ 60,757, or 450,000% more than it was in 2012. So this data means that BTC whales are slowly dying, but as Wu later discovered, addresses have between 100 and 1000 BTC in the past five weeks increased significantly. Considering that 100 BTC is worth over $ 6,000,000, more than enough to be considered a BTC whale, with data showing that mid-range BTC whales have been on the rise since early September.

Some key developments in the industry could have sparked the gold rush when El Salvador first accepted  Bitcoin as legal tender.

The decision was made despite objections from both the population and the legal opposition. The market rebounded in anticipation of the launch of ProShare’s exchange traded BTC futures fund. The situation has calmed down a bit, but an ETF will be the first of its kind in the US to give investors greater exposure to BTC with all the protections of a managed investment product.

The surge continued with Bitcoin’s surge earlier this year, hitting an all-time high of $ 64,863 before dropping to a low of $ 29,807 in 2021, but Bitcoin has risen since then and prices are still not far from the all-time high today removed. According to research by the crypto market maker B2C2, private investors did not drive the rally, but family offices. Goldman Sachs surveyed 150 family offices and found that around a fifth of them are interested in crypto exposures as inflation protection.
