Bitcoin Bullish Momentum Breakdown

The Bitcoin supply division shows the amount and percentage of the total circulating supply of BTC currently being held by each wallet group in the sector. Due to the large supply BTC owns, the whales are a major part of the Bitcoin ecosystem. They hold a significant portion of the supply that can cause a noticeable impact on the BTC price through their movements. 

Moreover, the sell-offs are taking place and have stopped the price surge of BTC. As a result, the price dropped to around $29,000. In the last two days, the investors have added around 20,000 bitcoins, worth $585.3 million, to their combined wallets. The latest accumulation from the whales and their total holdings has reached a value of over 3.88 million BTC worth $113.4 billion. Significantly, it is 20.7% of the entire BTC circulation supply.

At the time of writing, the trading price of BTC is $29,348, with a decline of around 3.16%, according to CoinMarketCap
