Bitcoin Whales Bolsters Bullish Momentum
Amid the recent emergence of crypto bullish sentiment, the Bitcoin network has registered a sharp uptick in on-chain activity, led by whale investors. As Bitcoin price gradually increased in the past few days, the supply of BTC on centralized exchanges has exponentially declined, suggesting rising demand from whale and institutional investors.
On Tuesday, October 15, the United States spot Bitcoin ETFs registered a net cash inflow of about $371 million. BlackRock’s IBIT led in net cash inflow of about $288.84 million on Tuesday, thus currently holding around $22 billion worth of Bitcoins.
In the past two days, the US spot BTC ETFs have registered a net cash inflow of nearly $1 billion, thus outpacing any sell orders. Remarkably, Grayscale’s GBTC, which has been bleeding profusely, has registered two consecutive days of cash inflows for the first time since the historic approval by the US SEC.
Meanwhile, Japan’s Metaplanet Inc (Tokyo: 3350) announced earlier today that it had acquired an additional 5.9 Bitcoins, thus currently holding over 861 BTCs.
The rising demand for Bitcoin by whale investors has helped increase its dominance in the crypto market, which spiked to nearly 59 percent in the past 24 hours.
