Latest news about Bitcoin and all cryptocurrencies. Your daily crypto news habit.
The third-largest BTC whale has accumulated more than 2,700 coins in a day as the cryptocurrency spiked above $50,000. The mystery entity has bought over 5,600 BTC in the past two weeks.
- CryptoPotato frequently reports the behavior of this particular whale who tends to sell when the cryptocurrencyâs price has gone on a tear lately and reaccumulates when it cools off.
- In the past few days, BTC more than cooled off as it plummeted from $58,000 to a low of $42,000 on Saturday.
- However, the whale remained relatively silent during this crash and didnât make any purchases, at least in this known wallet.
- As BTC began its recovery and reclaimed $50,000 earlier today, though, the entity started accumulating. They have bought 2,702 coins at an average price of $50,621, meaning that they had spent nearly $140 million.
- As CryptoQuantâs analyst, VentureFounder, pointed out, the whale has accumulated 5,624 bitcoins since November 22nd, worth $290 million at todayâs prices.
- Moreover, VentureFounder added that this is âofficially the highest number of bitcoin ever held in this wallet: 118,017,â as this whale has spent around $2.5 billion.
- The previous record was in July this year, when the asset had fallen around and below $30,000.
