It is clear that the current decline in bitcoin benefits certain smart investors, ready to seize the opportunity to fill their portfolios or take the plunge by acquiring their first coins. At the same time, the BTC “whales”, these investors with well-stocked portfolios, are increasing their strategic movements. In a seesaw market, large bitcoin holders seem to be preparing for a masterstroke. But what exactly are behind these recent BTC accumulations?
Bitcoin whales on the lookout for a rebound
Bitcoin whales, these silent giants of the crypto market – who accumulated 133,000 BTC in August, have not been idle in recent days. According to the latest data from Santimentrelayed by the analyst Ali Martinez, no less than 50,000 BTC were accumulated in just ten dayss. A colossal sum representing nearly $3.15 billion at the current price.

- Worth $3.15 billion;
- Accumulation over 10 days only.
These market behemoths seem to have a well-oiled strategy: buy during periods of high volatility and widespread fear. This reflects certain confidence in the short-term rebound potential of BTC, despite a less than reassuring economic situation.
The whales are often right, one might say, but the real question is: will this accumulation be enough to trigger a new bullish wave?
