In the murky waters of the cryptocurrency ocean, gigantic new leviathans have emerged. These “new whales,” cunning and shifty, have accumulated over a thousand Bitcoins each in less than 155 days. Who needs long-term dedication, right? 🤔 According to CryptoQuant’s expert, Axel Adler, these newcomers have become the big fish, sashaying into the spotlight.
Bitcoin (BTC): New Whales Seize the Throne
For those of you still sobbing into your ledger, here’s a fun fact: short-term-holding whales now control over 60% of all BTC value stored in big-shot accounts (that’s 1,000 Bitcoins and more). These flash-in-the-pan accounts, holding Bitcoin for less than 155 days, dethroned the ancient crypto-hoarders in Q4, 2024. Hurrah, the new kids are in town! 🎉

Unlike the geriatric whales who cling to their coins like they’re rare Pokémon, Adler reveals these newbies are flapping about the market with the enthusiasm of toddlers on a sugar high. They react swiftly to market changes, shifting their strategies to match the ebb and flow—be it accumulating, growing, or swiftly cashing out faster than you can say “blockchain.”
Recently, our new aquatic overlords have been beefing up their shares with the zeal of a squirrel hopped up on energy drinks. Their reign of dominance has swelled since Bitcoin danced past the $55,000 mark, and only picked up speed when it somersaulted over the 2021 high. 🐋⬆️
All told, these upstart “new whales” inflated their market share from a measly 17% in July 2024 to a hefty 60%, buoyed by the general euphoria sweeping through crypto-land.
Bitcoin (BTC) Hits $100,000 Amid Roller Coaster of Emotions
Axel Adler, being the wise seer he is, views this trend as a roaringly bullish marker for the whole marketplace. When optimism floods the metaphorical seas, these whales frolic and multiply. But in times of uncertainty, they skulk back to their murky depths.
As it stands, the early morning saw crypto prices take a swan dive, spooked by a new Chinese AI model that’s 30x more resource-efficient than its NASDAQ-listed rivals. Naturally, traders are now as jittery as a bat in daylight about Nvidia stocks and the S&P500. Yet, Bitcoin (BTC) remains the plucky underdog, brushing off the jitters and clawing its way back to a hopeful $101,000. 🥳
