The Bitcoin whale had sent 1,102 BTC, currently worth more than $74 millon to major crypto exchange Binance. Depositing coins to exchanges implies an intent to sell, while withdrawals may indicate an intent to buy.
The whale had bought Bitcoin eight months ago (July 2025 by estimation), when Bitcoin was still trading above $100,000 ($117,770 precisely).
The whale had bought in anticipation of a further price increase, with Bitcoin rising for four months straight from April to June 2025. Bitcoin consolidated for a while after the rise before continuing but was not able to post explosive gains.
The whale was able to witness Bitcoin's rise to all-time highs past $126,000 in October 2025, but chose to hold rather than sell.
