Bitcoin-valarna blir tysta: Stora transaktioner minskar kraftigt

On-chain data shows the Bitcoin Whale Transaction Count has witnessed a drawdown recently, a sign that big-money investors have reduced their activity.
Bitcoin Whale Transaction Count Has Dropped To Lows
In a new post on X, analytics firm Santiment has talked about the latest trend in the Bitcoin Whale Transaction Count. This indicator measures the daily total number of transfers occurring on the BTC network that involve a sum of more than $100,000.
Transactions with such a large value are usually considered to be coming from the whale entities, so this metric’s value basically reflects the activity that the large hands are participating in.
When the value of the Whale Transaction Count goes up, it means the number of moves being made by the whales is rising. Such a trend suggests big-money interest in the cryptocurrency may be climbing.
On the other hand, the indicator witnessing a decline could imply the large entities are shifting their attention away from the asset, as they are making a fewer number of transfers.
Now, here is the chart shared by Santiment that shows the trend in the Bitcoin Whale Transaction Count and its 7-day moving average (MA) over the last few years:
As displayed in the above graph, the Bitcoin Whale Transaction Count saw a notable spike during BTC’s price crash to start February, indicating whales became active. This isn’t anything unusual, as investors tend to make moves while the market is behaving in a volatile manner.As BTC has fallen into a phase of consolidation since this crash, however, the Whale Transaction Count has seen a rapid drop. The recent attempt at recovery also couldn’t ignite activity from the whales. Santiment noted:
Bitcoin’s whale activity has become historically quiet as key stakeholders await clarity (literally) from the CLARITY Act, as well as long-term finality to the war.
The Whale Transaction Count is currently sitting at 6,417, which is the lowest level for $100,000+ transfers since September 2023. In the same chart, the analytics firm has also attached the data for the transactions valued at more than $1 million. From this curve, it would appear that the massive transfers are down to 1,485, their lowest since October 2024.
Now, what could this trend mean for the market? Well, the answer to that question may not concretely lean in either the bullish or bearish direction. As Santiment explained:
What it does signal is that smart money is in the same boat as smaller retail holders at the moment, and have been reluctant to make moves with so much policy and global uncertainty at play.
BTC PriceBitcoin dropped back under $68,000 earlier, but the cryptocurrency has since seen a rebound as its price is now back at $70,800.
