While the impressive whale activities coincide with positive spot Bitcoin ETF inflows, it reflects growing interest among institutions and high-profile investors. Since the broad crypto market is consistently faced with rising uncertainties, it is difficult to ascertain the drive behind the growing whale activities. Nonetheless, increases in large transactions like this often signal accumulation phases or major market moves, as whales position themselves ahead of volatility. Nonetheless, Bitcoin has shown mixed price actions over the last week, and it is currently seeing its price plummet significantly. According to data from CoinMarketCap, Bitcoin has declined by 3.34% over the last day, trading at around $111,171 as of press time. Data: CoinMarketCap Apparently, the growing adoption of Bitcoin among large institutions and governments as a strategic reserve tool has contributed significantly to the growing on-chain activity. With big firms like Strategy , Metaplanet, and others relentlessly scooping up the asset on a regular basis regardless of the unstable market conditions, it is not a surprise that Bitcoin large transaction counts have remained on the upside. Nonetheless, market participants believe that this increased on-chain activity could indicate growing confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term outlook, particularly following strong ETF inflows and a rebound in market sentiment. #Bitcoin #Spot Bitcoin ETF #MicroStrategy #Metaplanet
