At the time of writing, the leading cryptocurrency is trading at $114,708 (-3.3% for the day), according to CoinGecko.

The accumulation of Bitcoin is offset by profit-taking from other major holders. Last week, one whale sold coins worth $9 billion with the assistance of Galaxy Digital.

Analysts at Glassnode noted that despite the large sale, most investors remain in profit. 97% of circulating coins are still “in profit,” and the unrealized profit in the market exceeds $1.4 trillion.

Bitget’s COO Vugar Usayzade commented to Decrypt that whales are also showing interest in other assets. They are increasing their positions in Ethereum, Solana, and some meme coins like PEPE and WIF. According to him, this indicates diversification into high-yield tokens, although the main focus remains on L1 platforms.

CryptoQuant analyst known as crypto sunmoon noted that Bitcoin reserves among whales continue to show an upward trend. Historically, the peak of the 2021 cycle coincided with a significant reduction in their assets. The expert believes that if the current accumulation trend changes, it could indicate an approach to a potential peak.

In July, the cryptocurrency market capitalization exceeded $4 trillion, but then corrected. At the time of writing, the figure stands at $3.81 trillion.

Earlier, “awakened” wallets moved 250 BTC after 15 years.
