Bitcoin & Ethereum Whales Snatch Every Dip

Bitcoin & Ethereum Whales Snatch Every Dip

Bitcoin (BTC), the biggest cryptocurrency in the world, is still trading under pressure despite not breaking $64,000 last week. With a market valuation of $1.213 trillion, Bitcoin is now down 1.33% at $61,605 as of the time of publication. In the larger cryptocurrency market, selling pressure is evident as the price of Ethereum (ETH) has recently struggled to stay over $3,000. Nevertheless, it appears that whale activity has resumed for these two leading cryptocurrencies. 

An Increase in Bitcoin Whale Activity

Significant whale activity has been seen over the last day, according to insights from on-chain analytics provider Santiment, as Bitcoin continues to trade in a narrow range between $61K and $64K. The total amount of coins in wallets with 1,000–10,000 BTC is estimated to be $941 million. They have recovered to their best holding level in the last two weeks, according to this accumulation trend.

According to Rekt Capital’s analysis, the cycle is expected to slow down if Bitcoin remains within its current price range. Additionally, it should stay around $70,000 post-Halving event.

Consequently, this realignment might lead to a Bull Market top around mid-September to October 2025.
