However, thereâs been heavy accumulation going around by Bitcoin whales as of now. As per the on-chain data provider, the Bitcoin millionaire-tier whale addresses have made the largest accumulation over the last 27 months, since July 2019. The data provider notes:
Bitcoinâs whale traders holding between 100 to 10,000 $BTC accumulated 70k $BTC 10 days ago, the largest day of accumulation for this group since July, 2019. Unsurprisingly, prices gradually returned to above $51k as whales show no sign of a dump yet.

Long Term Holders Under Massive BTC Accumulation Spree
Long-term Bitcoin holders have been on a massive accumulation spree after the holding supply bottomed out earlier this year in March 2021. As per data from Glassnode, these long-term holders have accumulated 13x more BTC then what have been mined in the last seven month. Glassnode explains:
Bitcoin Long Term Holders have added 2.35M $BTC to their stacks since their supply bottomed out in March. In that same period, only 180k $BTC were mined. This means LTHs have hodled 13x more coins than were produced via fresh issuance over the last 7 months.
The Bitcoin accumulation pattern clearly shows that we are heading for the beginning of the next bull run. Many analysts are predicting a minimum of $100K for Bitcoin by the end of this year. Besides, all eyes are on a possible Bitcoin ETF approval by the end of this year.
