Some bitcoin ‘whales’ may be selling, blockchain data indicates

Big bitcoin holders appear to be selling their tokens, threatening to drag the cryptocurrency deeper into the red, according to Citigroup. “On-chain data indicates a gradual decline in Bitcoin ‘whales’ (addresses holding large amounts of Bitcoin), while smaller ‘retail’ wallets have increased,” Citi analyst Alex Saunders said Tuesday in a note to clients. “Some large, long-time holders may have turned to sellers.” Bitcoin plunged more than 6% on Tuesday, briefly falling below a critical $100,000 support level for the first time since late June, as investor sentiment toward cryptocurrencies and AI-linked stocks soured amid concerns the risk-on assets might be overvalued. The recent price action marks a continuation of bitcoin’s downward trend over the past few weeks. Last month, the token’s historic October seasonal tailwinds failed to materialize for the first time since 2018, largely due to a flare up in U.S.-China trade tensions as well as cascading liquidations of highly leveraged digital asset positions in the middle of the month. Bitcoin was last trading up 3.2% at $103,788.13. The leading cryptocurrency is down 6% over the past week.
