According to Lookonchain, which tracks on-chain movements in cryptocurrencies, a so-called “master” crypto whale recently sold millions of dollars worth of Bitcoin (BTC) 
$104,940 after five months of inactivity.
Whale Buys Low and Sells High
Lookonchain reported that this whale executed a transaction by selling 200 BTC worth $11.6 million at the beginning of the week, having maintained its Bitcoin reserves for the past five months. Experts at Lookonchain noted, “This whale has been very successful at buying Bitcoin at low prices and selling at high prices! The whale currently holds 2,800 BTC (worth $164.4 million) and has made a total profit of over $168 million!”
Another Whale Sells Bitcoin
Not only this whale, but another address also deposited 119 BTC (worth $7.14 million) into the Binance exchange. According to Lookonchain, this second whale is also selling to realize profits from Bitcoin. Likely concerned about a market downturn, it liquidated its assets upon reaching a satisfying profit level.
“This whale bought a total of 3,409 BTC (worth $195.4 million) from the Binance exchange at an average price of $57,319 since December 1, 2023. Later, it deposited 320 BTC (worth $19.56 million) into the Binance exchange at $61,192, currently holding 3,089 BTC (worth $186 million). The profit made from Bitcoin is about $10.5 million.”
Bitcoin Price Movements
At the time of writing, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $63,000. As the largest cryptocurrency by market cap, BTC has seen nearly a 6% gain in the last 24 hours. However, it still remains below its all-time high of approximately $73,777 reached in March.
Large transactions executed by whales in the crypto market are closely monitored as they can influence market dynamics. These high-volume trades are considered significant indicators for investors.
Experts suggest that substantial BTC movements can reflect market sentiment and provide strategic insights to other investors. However, it’s important to recognize that whales can also create flawed strategies, as their reserves remain considerable.
