What Are Whale and Shark Investors Doing as Bitcoin Price Fluctuates?

Cryptocurrency analytics firm Alphractal has revealed a significant shift in Bitcoin address activity. While the number of addresses holding more than 100 BTC has increased rapidly, there has been a significant decrease in addresses holding more than 10,000 BTC. In its latest report, Alphractal analyzed the dynamics of Bitcoin addresses to identify potential trends and market behavior. The firm noted that addresses holding more than 100 BTC are often linked to institutional users, miners, and other high-net-worth individuals, commonly referred to as “sharks.” In contrast, the largest Bitcoin addresses, those holding more than 10,000 BTC, are typically controlled by exchanges, hedge funds, whales, and long-term holders. These entities often dominate the market by managing large-scale cryptocurrency reserves. Alphractal suggests that the decline in addresses holding over 10,000 BTC could indicate a redistribution of assets. “As Bitcoin approaches the $100,000 price level, there has been a noticeable migration of BTC from the largest addresses to smaller addresses, such as those holding 100 BTC or more,” the report said. This trend points to growing institutional interest and increased activity from “sharks” as the cryptocurrency gains momentum. The redistribution could also reflect a shift in market sentiment as exchanges and whales dump assets into the hands of smaller but significant players.

However, Alphractal noted that the decline in the mass holdings of exchanges and long-term investors could have different consequences. “Such a redistribution of Bitcoin assets could signal a changing market dynamic where institutions become more involved while exchanges and long-term holders reduce their risk,” the analyst firm explained. *This is not investment advice.
