On-chain data shows that large Bitcoin holders have switched to accumulation again, making use of low prices.
Bitcoin Zilla is currently in online purchase mode
Larger owners are currently purchasing BTC, according to data from Market Intelligence Platform IntotheBlock. The on-chain indicator of relevance here is the “large holder Netflow.” This tracks the net amount of assets coming and going from wallets associated with large owners.
The analytics firm defines “large holders” as entities carrying at least 0.1% of the total cryptocurrency supply in a balanced manner. At current exchange rates, this amount is worth a whopping $1.67 billion, so the address corresponding to the group will be the address owned by the largest investors in the space.
If the value of a large holder is positive, it means that these huge entities are receiving net inflows into their wallets. Such online purchases from this cohort can naturally be a bullish sign of BTC prices.
On the other hand, negative indicators mean that the biggest holders have decided to take part in some sales, which could lead to bearish results for cryptocurrency.
Now, here is the chart shared by the analytics company. This shows the trends of Netflow, a major owner of Bitcoin last week.
As shown in the graph above, the large BTC holder Netflow turned negative at the beginning of the week.
Cryptocurrency prices tracked crashes when the sale came into play, so this cohort appears to have played a role in bearish price action.
These influential beings may have been responsible for the decline of the market, at least in part, but as the indicator’s value returned to positive regions, they now look back and start buying instead.
According to the analytics company, large owners added 15,000 tokens to their wallets as BTC is below the $90,000 level. Therefore, this cohort appears to believe that the current low prices offer the opportunity for accumulation worthy of Bitcoin.
This purchase from the whale could have a bullish impact on BTC, similar to what previous selloffs did, but so far the coin has only kept slipping.
